Hebrews 4:1-10 ▼

1 We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, anyone of you may seem to have come short,

2 for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,

3 for we enter into the rest—we who believed, as He said, “So I swore in My anger, They will [not] enter into My rest”; and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,

4 for He spoke in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: “And God rested in the seventh day from all His works”;

5 and in this [place] again, “They will [not] enter into My rest”;

6 since then, it remains for some to enter into it, and those who first heard good news did not enter in because of unbelief—

7 again He limits a certain day, “Today,” in David saying, after so long a time, as it has been said, “Today, if you may hear His voice, you may not harden your hearts,”

8 for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken after these things concerning another day;

9 there remains, then, a Sabbath rest to the people of God,

10 for he who entered into His rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.
