| Hebrews 4:1 | Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it. | Therefore let us be on our guard lest perhaps, while He still leaves us a promise of being admitted to His rest, some one of you should be found to have fallen short of it. | Let us then, though we still have God's word that we may come into his rest, go in fear that some of you may be unable to do so. |
| Hebrews 4:2 | For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard. | For Good News has been brought to us as truly as to them; but the message they heard failed to benefit them, because they were not one in faith with those who gave heed to it. | And, truly, the good news came to us, even as it did to them; but the hearing of the word did them no good, because they were not united in faith with the true hearers. |
| Hebrews 4:3 | For we who have believed do enter into that rest; even as he hath said, As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. | We who have believed are soon to be admitted to the true rest; as He has said, "As I swore in My anger, they shall not be admitted to My rest," although God's works had been going on ever since the creation of the world. | For those of us who have belief come into his rest; even as he has said, As I said in my oath when I was angry, They may not come into my rest: though the works were done from the time of the making of the world. |
| Hebrews 4:4 | For he hath said somewhere of the seventh [day] on this wise, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works; | For, as we know, when speaking of the seventh day He has used the words, "And God rested on the seventh day from all His works;" | For in one place he has said of the seventh day, And God had rest from all his works on the seventh day; |
| Hebrews 4:5 | and in this [place] again, They shall not enter into my rest. | and He has also declared, "They shall not be admitted to My rest." | And in the same place he says again, They will not come into my rest. |
| Hebrews 4:6 | Seeing therefore it remaineth that some should enter thereinto, and they to whom the good tidings were before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience, | Since, then, it is still true that some will be admitted to that rest, and that because of disobedience those who formerly had Good News proclaimed to them were not admitted, | So that as it is clear that some have to go in, and that the first hearers of the good news were not able to go in because they went against God's orders, |
| Hebrews 4:7 | he again defineth a certain day, To-day, saying in David so long a time afterward (even as hath been said before), To-day if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts. | He again definitely mentions a certain day, "To-day," saying long afterwards, by David's lips, in the words already quoted, "To-day, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts." | After a long time, again naming a certain day, he says in David, Today (as he had said before), Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart, |
| Hebrews 4:8 | For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day. | For if Joshua had given them the true rest, we should not afterwards hear God speaking of another still future day. | For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have said anything about another day. |
| Hebrews 4:9 | There remaineth therefore a sabbath rest for the people of God. | It follows that there still remains a sabbath rest for the people of God. | So that there is still a Sabbath-keeping for the people of God. |
| Hebrews 4:10 | For he that is entered into his rest hath himself also rested from his works, as God did from his. | For He who has been admitted to His rest, has rested from His works as God did from His. | For the man who comes into his rest has had rest from his works, as God did from his. |
| Hebrews 4:11 | Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience. | Let it then be our earnest endeavour to be admitted to that rest, so that no one may perish through following the same example of unbelief. | Because of this, let us have a strong desire to come into that rest, and let no one go after the example of those who went against God's orders. |
| Hebrews 4:12 | For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart. | For God's Message is full of life and power, and is keener than the sharpest two-edged sword. It pierces even to the severance of soul from spirit, and penetrates between the joints and the marrow, and it can discern the secret thoughts and purposes of the heart. | For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart. |
| Hebrews 4:13 | And there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do. | And no created thing is able to escape its scrutiny; but everything lies bare and completely exposed before the eyes of Him with whom we have to do. | And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do. |
| Hebrews 4:14 | Having then a great high priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. | Inasmuch, then, as we have in Jesus, the Son of God, a great High Priest who has passed into Heaven itself, let us hold firmly to our profession of faith. | Having then a great high priest, who has made his way through the heavens, even Jesus the Son of God, let us be strong in our faith. |
| Hebrews 4:15 | For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin. | For we have not a High Priest who is unable to feel for us in our weaknesses, but one who was tempted in every respect just as we are tempted, and yet did not sin. | For we have not a high priest who is not able to be touched by the feelings of our feeble flesh; but we have one who has been tested in all points as we ourselves are tested, but without sin. |
| Hebrews 4:16 | Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help [us] in time of need. | Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our times of need. | Then let us come near to the seat of grace without fear, so that mercy may be given to us, and we may get grace for our help in time of need. |
