| 4:1 |
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.
|
| 4:2 |
For to us was the gospel preached, as well as to them: but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard [it].
|
| 4:3 |
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.
|
| 4:4 |
For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God rested the seventh day from all his works.
|
| 4:5 |
And in this [place] again, If they shall enter into my rest.
|
| 4:6 |
Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached entered not because of unbelief:
|
| 4:7 |
(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.
|
| 4:8 |

|
| 4:9 |

|
| 4:10 |
For he that hath entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God [did] from his.)
|
| 4:11 |
Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
|
| 4:12 |
For the word of God [is] living, and powerful, and sharper than any 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.
|
| 4:13 |
Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
|
| 4:14 |
Seeing then that we have a great High Priest, that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession.
|
| 4:15 |
For we have not a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but who was in all points tempted as [we are], [yet] without sin.
|
| 4:16 |
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
