[1] therefore fear, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of should seem to come short of it. [2] For the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard [3] For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in wrath, if they shall enter into rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. [4] 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. [5] And in place again, If they shall enter into rest. [6] Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached not in because of unbelief: [7] Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not hearts. [8] For if Jesus them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. [9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. [10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. [11] Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, any man fall after the same example of unbelief. [12] 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. [13] Neither any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom to do.
