Bible verses about "rest" | Noyes

¹ Let us then fear, since a promise is still left us of entering into his rest, lest any one of you should appear to fail of obtaining it. ² For to us were glad tidings addressed, as well as to them; but the word which was heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. ³ For we who believed enter into the rest, as he hath said: "So I swore in my wrath, they shall not enter into my rest;" although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. ⁴ For he hath spoken in a certain place of the seventh day thus: "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works;" ⁵ and in this place again: "They shall not enter into my rest." ⁶ Since then it still remaineth for some to enter into it, and they to whom the glad tidings of it were first brought did not enter in because of disobedience, ⁷ he again appointeth a certain day, "Today"saying in David so long a time after, as hath before been said"Today, if ye hear his voice, harden not your hearts." ⁸ For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not after this be speaking of another day. ⁹ There remaineth therefore a sabbathrest to the people of God. ¹⁰ For he that hath entered into his rest, hath himself rested from his works, as God did from his own. ¹¹ Let us then strive to enter into that rest, that no one may fall, as a like example of disobedience.
