1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you might seem to have failed [of it].

1Let us fear therefore lest, the promise being left of entering into his rest, any of you should be thought to be wanting.

2For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard.

2For unto us also it hath been declared in like manner as unto them. But the word of hearing did not profit them, not being mixed with faith of those things they heard.

3For we enter into the rest who have believed; as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest; although the works had been completed from [the] foundation of [the] world.

3For we, who have believed, shall enter into rest; as he said: As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest; and this indeed when the works from the foundation of the world were finished.

4For he has said somewhere of the seventh [day] thus, AndGod rested on the seventh day from all his works:

4For in a certain place he spoke of the seventh day thus: And God rested the seventh day from all his works.

5and in this again, If they shall enter into my rest.

5And in this place again: If they shall enter into my rest.

6Seeing therefore it remains that some enter into it, and those who first received the glad tidings did not enter in on account of not hearkening to the word,

6Seeing then it remaineth that some are to enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached did not enter because of unbelief:

7again he determines a certain day, saying, in David, 'To-day,' after so long a time; (according as it has been said before), To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

7Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David; To day, after so long a time as it is above said: To day if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

8For if Jesus had brought them into rest, he would not have spoken afterwards about another day.

8For if Jesus had given them rest he would never have afterwards spoken of another day.

9There remains then a sabbatism to the people ofGod.

9There remaineth therefore a day of rest for the people of God.

10For he that has entered into his rest, he also has rested from his works, asGod did from his own.

10For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested from his works, as God did from his.

11Let us therefore use diligence to enter into that rest, that no one may fall after the same example of not hearkening to the word.

11Let us hasten therefore to enter into that rest: lest any man fall into the same example of unbelief.

12For the word ofGod [is] living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to [the] division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of [the] heart.

12For the word of God is living and effectual and more piercing than any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the spirit, of the joints also and the marrow: and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13And there is not a creature unapparent before him; but all things [are] naked and laid bare to his eyes, with whom we have to do.

13Neither is there any creature invisible in his sight: but all things are naked and open to his eyes, to whom our speech is.

14Having therefore a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son ofGod, let us hold fast the confession.

14Having therefore a great high priest that hath passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God: let us hold fast our confession.

15For we have not a high priest not able to sympathise with our infirmities, but tempted in all things in like manner, sin apart.

15For we have not a high priest who cannot have compassion on our infirmities: but one tempted in all things like as we are, without sin.

16Let us approach therefore with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace for seasonable help.

16Let us go therefore with confidence to the throne of grace: that we may obtain mercy and find grace in seasonable aid.
