King James Version

Berean Standard Bible
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.
Therefore, while
the
promise of entering His rest still
stands
, let
us
be
careful
that
none
of you be
deemed
to have
fallen
short of it.
For unto
us
was
the gospel
preached,
as
well
as unto
them:
but the word
preached
did
not
profit
them, not being
mixed
with
faith in
them
that
heard
it.
For we
also
received
the good
news
just
as they
did;
but the message
they
heard
was
of
no
value
to
them, since
they
did
not share
the
faith of
those
who
comprehended
it.
For
we which
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.
Now
we who
have believed enter that
rest .
As for
the
others
, it
is
just
as God
has
said:
“So
I swore
on
oath
in My anger
, ‘
They shall never
enter My rest .’”
And
yet
His
works have
been
finished since
the foundation of the world.
For he spake
in
a
certain
place
of
the seventh day on
this wise,
And God
did
rest
the seventh day from all his works.
For somewhere
He has
spoken
about
the seventh day in
this manner:
“
And on
the seventh day God
rested
from all His works. ”
And in
this
place
again, If
they shall enter into
my rest.
And again, as
He
says
in
the
passage
above:
“
They shall never
enter My rest. ”
Seeing
therefore
it remaineth
that
some must
enter therein
, and they
to
whom
it
was
first
preached
entered
not in
because of unbelief:
Since,
then,
it remains
for
some to
enter His
rest
, and since
those
who
formerly
heard
the
good
news
did
not enter
because of their
disobedience,
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.
God
again designated
a certain day as
“Today
, ”
when
a long
time later
He
spoke
through
David
as was
just
stated:
“Today
, if you
hear His voice, do
not harden
your hearts. ”
For if Jesus
had given them rest, then
would he
not afterward
have spoken of
another day.
For if Joshua
had given them rest, God
would not have spoken later
about
another day.
There remaineth
therefore
a rest to
the people of God.
There remains,
then,
a Sabbath
rest for
the people of God.
For he
that
is
entered
into
his
rest ,
he
also hath
ceased
from his own works
, as God did from his.
For whoever
enters
God’s
rest also rests
from his own work
, just
as God did from His.
Let us labour
therefore to enter into
that rest, lest
any
man
fall after
the same example
of unbelief
.
Let us ,
therefore ,
make
every
effort
to enter that rest, so
that
no
one
will
fall by
following
the same pattern
of disobedience
.
For the word of God is quick,
and
powerful,
and sharper than any twoedged
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.
For the word of God is living
and active.
Sharper than any double-edged
sword, it
pierces
even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow .
It
judges
the thoughts and intentions
of the heart.
Neither
is
there
any
creature
that
is
not
manifest
in his
sight:
but
all things
are
naked
and opened
unto
the eyes of him with
whom we have
to
do
.
Nothing
in all creation
is
hidden
from
God’s
sight;
everything
is
uncovered
and exposed
before
the eyes of Him to
whom we must
give
account
.
Seeing
then
that
we have a great high priest ,
that
is
passed into
the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast
our
profession
.
Therefore,
since
we have a great high priest who
has
passed through
the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly
to
what
we
profess
.
For we have
not an
high priest which
cannot
be
touched
with the
feeling
of
our infirmities;
but was in
all
points
tempted like
as
we are, yet without sin.
For we do
not have
a
high priest who
is
unable
to
sympathize
with our weaknesses,
but we
have
one
who
was tempted in
every
way
that
we are, yet was
without sin.
Let us therefore
come
boldly
unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain
mercy ,
and find grace to help in time of need.
Let us then
approach
the throne of grace with
confidence
, so
that we may receive
mercy and find grace to help us
in our
time of need.
