Hebrews 4

1 Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it.

Let us therefore fear, lest a promise being left [us] of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

2 For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because they were not united by faith with them that heard.

For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard [it].

3 For we which have believed do enter into that rest; even as he hath said, As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

For we who have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4 For he hath said somewhere of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works;

For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God rested the seventh day from all his works.

5 and in this [place] again, They shall not enter into my rest.

And in this [place] again, If they shall enter into my rest.

6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some should enter thereinto, and they to whom the good tidings were before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached entered not because of unbelief:

7 he again defineth a certain day, saying in David, after so long a time, Today, as it hath been before said, Today if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts.

(Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To-day, after so long a time; as it is said, To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.

For if Jesus had given them rest, then he would not afterward have spoken of another day.

9 There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest for the people of God.

There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

10 For he that is entered into his rest hath himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.

For he that hath entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God [did] from his.)

11 Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience.

Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

For the word of God [is] living, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13 And there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

14 Having then a great high priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession.

15 For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.

For we have not a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but who was in all points tempted as [we are], [yet] without sin.

16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help [us] in time of need.

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
