1 Let us be afraid therefore, lest, a promise being left behind to enter into his rest, any of you should seem to have come short.
2 For we also are having good-news preached, just as also those men, but the word of hearing did not benefit those men, not having been mixed together with faith in those who heard.
3 For those who believe enter into that rest, just as he said, So I swore in my wrath, They will not enter into my rest, although the works occurred from the foundation of the world.
4 For he spoke somewhere about the seventh this way, And God rested during the seventh day from all his works,
5 and in this again, They will not enter into my rest.
6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter into it, and those who formerly had good-news did not enter because of disobedience,
7 again he appoints a certain day, Today, saying in David after so long a time (as it is said), Today if ye will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken about another day after these things.
9 There remains therefore a Sabbath for the people of God.
10 For a man who has entered into his rest, he has also rested from his works, as God did from his own.
11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter into that rest, so that not any man may fall by the same example of disobedience.
12 For the word of God is living, and potent, and sharper, above every two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division both of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and discernible of the thoughts and intentions of the hear
13 And there is no creature concealed from his presence, but all things are naked and vulnerable to his eyes, before whom is the word to us.
14 Having therefore a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us take hold of the affirmation.
15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but who was tempted in all things in the same way, without sin.
16 Let us therefore come near with boldness to the throne of grace, so that we may take mercy, and may find grace for timely help.
1 Let vs feare therfore lest eny of vs forsakynge the promes of entrynge into his rest shulde seme to come behinde.
2 For vnto vs was it declared as well as vnto them. But it proffited not them that they hearde the worde because they which hearde it coupled it not with fayth.
3 But we which have beleved do enter into his rest as contrarywyse he sayde to the other: I have sworne in my wrath they shall not enter into my rest. And that spake he verely longe after that the workes were made and the foudacio of ye worlde layde.
4 For he spake in a certayne place of ye seveth daye on this wyse: And god did rest ye seventh daye fro all his workes.
5 And in this place agayne: They shall not come into my rest.
6 Seynge therfore it foloweth that some muste enter therinto and they to who it was fyrst preached entred not therin for vnbeleves sake.
7 Agayne he apoynteth in David a certayne present daye after so longe a tyme sayinge as it is rehearsed: this daye if ye heare his voyce be not harde herted.
8 For if Iosue had geven them rest then wolde he not afterwarde have spoke of another daye.
9 There remayneth therfore yet a rest to ye people of God.
10 For he yt is is entred into his rest doth cease from his awne workes as god did from his.
11 Let vs study therfore to entre into that rest lest eny man faule after the same ensample in to vnbelefe.
12 For the worde of god is quycke and myghty in operacion and sharper then eny two edged swearde: and entreth through even vnto the dividynge asonder of the soule and the sprete and of the ioyntes and the mary: and iudgeth the thoughtes and the intentes of the herte:
13 nether is there eny creature invisible in the sight of it. For all thynges are naked and bare vnto the eyes of him of who we speake.
14 Seynge then that we have a great hye prest whych is entred into heven (I meane Iesus the sonne of God) let vs holde oure profession.
15 For we have not an hye prest which can not have compassion on oure infirmities: but was in all poyntes tempted lyke as we are: but yet with out synne.
16 Let vs therfore goo boldely vnto the seate of grace that we maye receave mercy and fynde grace to helpe in tyme of nede.
