9 Therefore a celebration of a sabbath remains to the people of God. 10 For he having come into his rest, he also has ceased from his works, as God from his own. 11 Therefore we should be earnest to come into that rest, lest any should fall in the same pattern of unbelief. 12 For the word of God living, and effective, and more piercing than any two-mouthed sword, and penetrating even to the division both of soul and spirit, both the joints and marrows, and a critic of the reflections and thoughts of the heart. 13 And there is no creation invisible before him: and all things naked and exposed, neck and face to view, to the eyes of him with whom to us is the word. 14 Having therefore a great chief priest, passed to the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, we should hold firmly the assent. 15 For we have not a chief priest unable to suffer with our weaknesses; but tried in all things as a resemblance, without sin. 16 We should therefore go with freedom of speech to the throne of grace, that we receive mercy, and find grace for timely assistance.
