Hebrews 4

1 Nítorí náà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọlọ́run ti ṣe ìlérí àtiwọ inú ìsinmi rẹ̀ fún wa, ẹ jẹ́ kí á bẹ̀rù, kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín má ba à dàbí ẹni pé ó tí kùnà rẹ̀.

Wherefore, let us be afraid, lest a promise of entrance into the rest, being left, any of you should seem to fall short of it.

2 Nítorí tí àwa gbọ́ ìwàásù ìyìnrere, gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti wàásù rẹ̀ fún àwọn náà pẹ̀lú, ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rọ̀ tí wọ́n gbọ́ kò ṣe wọ́n ní àǹfààní, nítorí tí kò dàpọ̀ mọ́ ìgbàgbọ́ nínú àwọn tí ó gbọ́ ọ.

For glad tidings have been proclaimed to us, as well as to them: but the word which they heard did not profit them; not being mixed with faith in them who heard it.

3 Nítorí pé àwa tí ó ti gbàgbọ́ wọ inú ìsinmi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó tí wí, “Bí mo tí búra nínú ìbínú mi, ‘Wọn kì yóò wọ inú ìsinmi mi.’” Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé a tí parí iṣẹ́ wọ̀nyí láti ìpìlẹ̀ ayé.

For we, who have believed, do enter into the rest, as he said, "So, I swore, in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest"; namely, from the works that were finished at the formation of the world.

4 Nítorí ó ti sọ níbìkan ní ti ọjọ́ keje báyìí pé, “Ọlọ́run sì sinmi ní ọjọ́ keje kúrò nínú iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ gbogbo.”

For he has spoken somewhere concerning the seventh day, thus: "And God rested on the seventh day, from all his works."

5 Àti níhìn-ín yìí pẹ̀lú ó wí pé, “Wọn kì yóò wọ inú ìsinmi mi.”

And in this, again, "They shall not enter into my rest."

6 Nítorí náà bí ó tí jẹ́ pé, ó ku kí àwọn kan wọ inú rẹ̀, àti àwọn tí a ti wàásù ìyìnrere náà fún ní ìṣáájú kò wọ inú rẹ̀ nítorí àìgbọ́ràn.

Since, then, it remains for some to enter into it, and that they who first received the good tidings, did not enter in on account of unbelief:

7 Àti pé, ó yan ọjọ́ kan, ó wí nínú ìwé Dafidi pé, “Lónìí,” lẹ́yìn ìgbà pípẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀; bí a tí wí níṣàájú, “Lónìí bí ẹ̀yin bá gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀, ẹ má ṣe sé ọkàn yín le.”

again, he limits a certain day, saying, by David, "To-day," after so long a time; as it is said, "To-day, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts."

8 Nítorí, ìbá ṣe pé Joṣua tí fún wọn ní ìsinmi, òun kì bá tí sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ọjọ́ ìsinmi mìíràn lẹ́yìn náà,

For, if Joshua has caused them to rest, he would not, after that, have spoken of another day.

9 nítorí náà ìsinmi kan kù fún àwọn ènìyàn Ọlọ́run.

There remains, therefore, a divine rest for the people of God.

10 Nítorí pé ẹni tí ó ba bọ́ sínú ìsinmi rẹ̀, òun pẹ̀lú sinmi kúrò nínú iṣẹ́ tirẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọlọ́run ti sinmi kúrò nínú iṣẹ́ tirẹ̀.

For he who has entered into his rest, has himself, also, rested from his own works, like as God, also, rested from his.

11 Nítorí náà, ẹ jẹ́ kí á múra gírí láti wọ inú ìsinmi náà, kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ba à ṣubú nípa irú àìgbàgbọ́ kan náà.

Wherefore let us carefully strive to enter into THIS REST, lest any one should fall after the same example of unbelief.

12 Nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run yè, ó sì ní agbára, ó sì mu ju idàkídà olójú méjì lọ, ó sì ń gún ni, àní títí dé pínpín ọkàn àti ẹ̀mí ní yà, àti ní oríkèé àti ọ̀rá inú egungun, òun sì ni olùmọ̀ èrò inú àti ète ọkàn.

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 purposes of the heart.

13 Kò sí ẹ̀dá kan tí kò farahàn níwájú rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ohun gbogbo ni ó wà níhòhò tí a sì ṣípáyà fún ojú rẹ̀, níwájú ẹni tí àwa yóò jíyìn.

And there is no creature concealed from his sight, for all things are naked and open to the eyes of him, to whom we must give an account.

14 Ǹjẹ́ bí a ti ní olórí àlùfáà ńlá kan, tí ó ti la àwọn ọ̀run kọjá lọ, Jesu Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, ẹ jẹ́ kí a di ìjẹ́wọ́ wa mú ṣinṣin.

Now, having a great High Priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

15 Nítorí a kò ní olórí àlùfáà tí kò lè ṣàì ba ni kẹ́dùn nínú àìlera wa, ẹni tí a ti dánwò lọ́nà gbogbo gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwa, ṣùgbọ́n òun kò dẹ́ṣẹ̀.

For we have not a High Priest who can not sympathize with our weaknesses; but one who was tried in all points, according to the likeness of his nature to our ours, without sin.

16 Nítorí náà, ẹ jẹ́ kí a wá si ibi ìtẹ́ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìgboyà, kí a lè rí àánú gbà, kí a sì rí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ láti máa ran ni lọ́wọ́ ní àkókò tí ó wọ̀.

Let us, therefore, approach, with boldness, to the throne of favor, that we may receive mercy, and obtain favor for the purpose of seasonable help.
