4:1 Therefore, we must fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it.
4:2 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also did; but the word ①they heard did not benefit them, because ②they were not united with those who listened with faith.
▷ ①Lit of hearing ②One early ms it was not united with faith in those who heard
4:3 For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said,
“AS I SWORE IN MY ANGER,
THEY CERTAINLY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST,” although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4:4 For He has said somewhere concerning the seventh day: “AND GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORKS”;
4:5 and again in this passage, “THEY CERTAINLY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST.”
4:6 Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who previously had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience,
4:7 He again sets a certain day, “Today,” saying ①through David after so long a time just as has been said before,
“TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE,
DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS.”
▷ ①Or in
4:8 For if ①Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that.
▷ ①Gr Jesus
4:9 Consequently, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
4:10 For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His.
4:11 Therefore let’s make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same example of disobedience.
4:12 For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to ①judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
▷ ①Or discern
4:13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him to whom ①we must answer.
▷ ①Lit is our word
4:14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let’s hold firmly to our confession.
4:15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things just as we are, yet without sin.
4:16 Therefore let’s approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace for help at the time of our need.
