Hebrews 4 Let us therefore fear, lest a promise being left of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Let us therefore fear, lest a promise being left of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. ² For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with the faith of them that heard, ³ 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 spake in a certain place of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. ⁵ And in this again, If they shalt enter into my rest. ⁶ Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached, entered not in because of unbelief: ⁷ Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it was said beforehand, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. ⁸ For if Joshua had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. ⁹ Therefore this is another rest yet to come, for the people of God. ¹⁰ For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from all his own works, as God from his. ¹¹ Let us labour therefore, Brethren, to enter into that rest, lest any man fall from the same example of truth. ¹² For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than a 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 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked, and opened unto the eyes of him of whom we speak. ¹⁴ 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. ¹⁵ For we have not an high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, without sin. ¹⁶ Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace for seasonableassistance.
