Hebrews 4:9-16

Williams(i) 9 So a sabbath of rest is still awaiting God's people. 10 For whoever is admitted into God's rest himself has rested from his works, just as God did. 11 So let us do our best to be admitted to that rest, so that not one of us may fail through the same sort of disobedience. 12 For God's message is alive and full of power in action, sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing even to the depths of soul and spirit, to the dividing of joints and marrow, and passing judgment on the thoughts and purposes of the heart. 13 No creature of His can escape God's sight, but everything is bare and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we have to give account. 14 Since then we have in Jesus, the Son of God, a great High Priest who has gone right up to heaven itself, let us continue to keep a firm hold on our profession of faith in Him. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who is incapable of sympathizing with us in our weaknesses, but we have One who was tempted in every respect as we are, and yet without committing any sin. 16 So let us continue coming with courage to the throne of God's unmerited favor to obtain His mercy and to find His spiritual strength to help us when we need it.
