For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said, "^(c) As I swore in My wrath , They shall not enter My rest ," although His works were finished ^(d)from the foundation of the world.

For He has said ^(e)somewhere concerning the seventh day: "^(f) And God ^(g) rested on the seventh day from all His works ";

and again in this passage, "^(h) They shall not enter My rest ."

Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of ⁽ⁱ⁾disobedience,

He again fixes a certain day, "Today," saying ^[c]through David after so long a time just ^(j)as has been said before, "^(k) Today if you hear His voice , Do not harden your hearts ."

For ^(l)if ^[d]Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that.

So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
