Therefore, we must fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it.

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.

For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also did; but the word they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united with those who listened with faith.

For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said, "AS I SWORE IN MY ANGER, THEY CERTAINLY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST," although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.

For we which 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.

For He has said somewhere concerning the seventh day: "AND GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORKS";

For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

and again in this passage, "THEY CERTAINLY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST."

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

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

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

He again sets a certain day, "Today," saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, "TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS."

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.

For if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that.

For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

Consequently, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.

There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His.

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

Therefore let's make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same example of disobedience.

Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, even penetrating as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged 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.

And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him to whom we must answer.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let's hold firmly to our confession.

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things just as we are, yet without sin.

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

Therefore let's approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace for help at the time of our need.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
