Hebrews 4:1-9

Living_Oracles(i) 1 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 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 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 For he has spoken somewhere concerning the seventh day, thus: "And God rested on the seventh day, from all his works." 5 And in this, again, "They shall not enter into my rest." 6 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 again, he limits a certain day, saying, by David, "Today," after so long a time; as it is said, "Today, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts." 8 For, if Joshua has caused them to rest, he would not, after that, have spoken of another day. 9 There remains, therefore, a divine rest for the people of God.
