Verse 1

Let us{G5399} fear{G5399} therefore,{G3767} lest{G3379} haply, a promise{G1860} being left{G2641} of entering{G1525} into{G1519} his{G846} rest,{G2663} any{G5100} one of{G1537} you{G5216} should seem{G1380} to have come short of it.{G5302}

Verse 2

For{G1063} indeed{G2532} we have had{G2070} good tidings preached{G2097} unto us, even as{G2509} also they:{G2548} but{G235} the word{G3056} of hearing{G189} did{G5623} not{G3756} profit{G5623} them,{G1565} because it was not{G3361} united{G4786} by faith{G4102} with them that heard.{G191}

Verse 3

For{G1063} we{G1525} who have believed{G4100} do enter{G1525} into{G1519} that rest;{G2663} even as{G2531} he hath said,{G2046} As{G5613} I sware{G3660} in{G1722} my{G3450} wrath,{G3709} {G1487} They shall not enter{G1525} into{G1519} my{G3450} rest:{G2663} although{G2543} the works{G2041} were finished{G1096} from{G575} the foundation{G2602} of the world.{G2889}

Verse 4

For{G1063} he hath said{G2046} somewhere{G4225} of{G4012} the seventh{G1442} [day] on this wise,{G3779} And{G2532} God{G2316} rested{G2664} on{G1722} the{G2250} seventh{G1442} day{G2250} from{G575} all{G3956} his{G846} works;{G2041}

Verse 5

and{G2532} in{G1722} this{G5129} [place] again,{G3825} {G1487} They shall not enter{G1525} into{G1519} my{G3450} rest.{G2663}

Verse 6

Seeing{G1893} therefore{G3767} it remaineth{G620} that some{G5100} should enter{G1525} thereinto,{G846} {G1519} and{G2532} they to whom the good tidings were{G2097} before{G4386} preached{G2097} failed{G3756} to enter{G1525} in{G1525} because of{G1223} disobedience,{G543}

Verse 7

he again{G3825} defineth{G3724} a certain{G5100} day,{G2250} To-day,{G4594} saying{G3004} in{G1722} David{G1138} so long{G5118} a time{G5550} afterward{G3326} (even as{G2531} hath been said{G2046} before), To-day{G4594} if{G1437} ye shall hear{G191} his{G846} voice,{G5456} Harden{G4645} not{G3361} your{G5216} hearts.{G2588}

Verse 8

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

For{G1063} the word{G3056} of God{G2316} is living,{G2198} and{G2532} active,{G1756} and{G2532} sharper{G5114} than{G5228} any{G3956} two-edged{G1366} sword,{G3162} and piercing{G1338} even{G2532} to{G891} the dividing{G3311} of{G5037} soul{G5590} and{G2532} spirit,{G4151} of both{G5037} joints{G719} and{G5037} marrow,{G3452} and{G2532} quick to discern{G2924} the thoughts{G1761} and{G2532} intents{G1771} of the heart.{G2588}

Verse 13

And there{G2076} is no{G3756} creature{G2937} that is not manifest{G852} in{G1799} his{G846} sight:{G1799} but{G1161} all things{G3956} are naked{G1131} and{G2532} laid open{G5136} before the eyes{G3788} of him{G846} with{G4314} whom{G3739} we have{G2254} to do.{G3056}
