1 Let us{G5399} therefore{G3767} fear{G5399}{(G5680)}, lest{G3379}, a promise{G1860} being left{G2641}{(G5746)} us of entering{G1525}{(G5629)} into{G1519} his{G846} rest{G2663}, any{G5100} of{G1537} you{G5216} should seem{G1380}{(G5725)} to come short of it{G5302}{(G5760)}.

2 For{G2532}{G1063} unto us was{G2070}{(G5748)} the gospel preached{G2097}{(G5772)}, as well as{G2509} unto them{G2548}: but{G235} the word{G3056} preached{G189} did{G5623} not{G3756} profit{G5623}{(G5656)} them{G1565}, not{G3361} being mixed{G4786}{(G5772)} with faith{G4102} in them that heard{G191}{(G5660)} it.

3 For{G1063} we which{G3588} have believed{G4100}{(G5660)} do enter{G1525}{(G5736)} into{G1519} rest{G2663}, as{G2531} he said{G2046}{(G5758)}, As{G5613} I have sworn{G3660}{(G5656)} in{G1722} my{G3450} wrath{G3709}, if{G1487} they shall enter{G1525}{(G5695)} into{G1519} my{G3450} rest{G2663}: although{G2543} the works{G2041} were finished{G1096}{(G5679)} from{G575} the foundation{G2602} of the world{G2889}.

4 For{G1063} he spake{G2046}{(G5758)} in a certain place{G4225} of{G4012} the seventh{G1442} day on this wise{G3779}, And{G2532} God{G2316} did rest{G2664}{(G5656)} the seventh{G1722}{G1442} day{G2250} from{G575} all{G3956} his{G846} works{G2041}.

5 And{G2532} in{G1722} this{G5129} place again{G3825}, If{G1487} they shall enter{G1525}{(G5695)} into{G1519} my{G3450} rest{G2663}.

6 Seeing{G1893} therefore{G3767} it remaineth{G620}{(G5743)} that some{G5100} must enter{G1525}{(G5629)} therein{G1519}{G846}, and{G2532} they to whom it was first{G4386} preached{G2097}{(G5685)} entered{G1525} not{G3756} in{G1525}{(G5627)} because{G1223} of unbelief{G543}:

7 Again{G3825}, he limiteth{G3724}{(G5719)} a certain{G5100} day{G2250}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)} in{G1722} David{G1138}, To day{G4594}, after{G3326} so long{G5118} a time{G5550}; as{G2531} it is said{G2046}{(G5769)}, To day{G4594} if{G1437} ye will hear{G191}{(G5661)} his{G846} voice{G5456}, harden{G4645}{(G5725)} not{G3361} your{G5216} hearts{G2588}.

8 For{G1063} if{G1487} Jesus{G2424} had given{G2664} them{G846} rest{G2664}{(G5656)}, then would he{G302} not{G3756} afterward{G3326}{G5023} have spoken{G2980}{(G5707)} of{G4012} another{G243} day{G2250}.

9 There remaineth{G620}{(G5743)} therefore{G686} a rest{G4520} to the people{G2992} of God{G2316}.

10 For{G1063} he that is entered{G1525}{(G5631)} into{G1519} his{G846} rest{G2663}, he{G846} also{G2532} hath ceased{G2664}{(G5656)} from{G575} his own{G846} works{G2041}, as{G5618} God{G2316} did from{G575} his{G2398}.

11 Let us labour{G4704}{(G5661)} therefore{G3767} to enter{G1525}{(G5629)} into{G1519} that{G1565} rest{G2663}, lest{G3363} any man{G5100} fall{G4098}{(G5632)} after{G1722} the same{G846} example{G5262} of unbelief{G543}.

12 For{G1063} the word{G3056} of God{G2316} is quick{G2198}{(G5723)}, and{G2532} powerful{G1756}, and{G2532} sharper{G5114} than{G5228} any{G3956} twoedged{G1366} sword{G3162}, piercing{G1338}{(G5740)} even to{G891} the dividing asunder{G3311} of soul{G5590} and{G5037}{G2532} spirit{G4151}, and{G5037}{G2532} of the joints{G719} and{G2532} marrow{G3452}, and{G2532} is a discerner{G2924} of the thoughts{G1761} and{G2532} intents{G1771} of the heart{G2588}.

13 Neither{G2532}{G3756} is there{G2076}{(G5748)} any creature{G2937} that is not manifest{G852} in his{G846} sight{G1799}: but{G1161} all things{G3956} are naked{G1131} and{G2532} opened{G5136}{(G5772)} unto the eyes{G3788} of him{G846} with{G4314} whom{G3739} we have{G2254} to do{G3056}.

14 Seeing{G2192} then{G3767} that we have{G2192}{(G5723)} a great{G3173} high priest{G749}, that is passed into{G1330}{(G5756)} the heavens{G3772}, Jesus{G2424} the Son{G5207} of God{G2316}, let us hold fast{G2902}{(G5725)} our profession{G3671}.

15 For{G1063} we have{G2192}{(G5719)} not{G3756} an high priest{G749} which cannot{G3361}{G1410}{(G5740)} be touched with the feeling{G4834}{(G5658)} of our{G2257} infirmities{G769}; but{G1161} was{G3985} in{G2596} all points{G3956} tempted{G3985}{(G5772)}{(G5625)}{G3987}{(G5772)} like{G2596} as{G3665} we are, yet without{G5565} sin{G266}.

16 Let us{G4334} therefore{G3767} come{G4334}{(G5741)} boldly{G3326}{G3954} unto the throne{G2362} of grace{G5485}, that{G2443} we may obtain{G2983}{(G5632)} mercy{G1656}, and{G2532} find{G2147}{(G5632)} grace{G5485} to help{G996} in{G1519} time of need{G2121}.
