WEB·Hebrews 4

¹Let’s fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.

KJVLet us^G5399 therefore^G3767 fear^G5399^(G5680), lest^G3379, a promise^G1860 being left^G2641^(G5746) us of entering^G1525^(G5629) into^G1519 his^G846 rest^G2663, any^G5100 of^G1537 you^G5216 should seem^G1380^(G5725) to come short of it^G5302^(G5760).

² For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard didn’t profit them, because it wasn’t mixed with faith by those who heard.

KJVFor^G2532^G1063 unto us was^G2070^(G5748) the gospel preached^G2097^(G5772), as well as^G2509 unto them^G2548: but^G235 the word^G3056 preached^G189 did^G5623 not^G3756 profit^G5623^(G5656) them^G1565, not^G3361 being mixed^G4786^(G5772) with faith^G4102 in them that heard^G191^(G5660) it.

³ For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;” although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

KJVFor^G1063 we which^G3588 have believed^G4100^(G5660) do enter^G1525^(G5736) into^G1519 rest^G2663, as^G2531 he said^G2046^(G5758), As^G5613 I have sworn^G3660^(G5656) in^G1722 my^G3450 wrath^G3709, if^G1487 they shall enter^G1525^(G5695) into^G1519 my^G3450 rest^G2663: although^G2543 the works^G2041 were finished^G1096^(G5679) from^G575 the foundation^G2602 of the world^G2889.

⁴ For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, “God rested on the seventh day from all his works;”

KJVFor^G1063 he spake^G2046^(G5758) in a certain place^G4225 of^G4012 the seventh^G1442 day on this wise^G3779, And^G2532 God^G2316 did rest^G2664^(G5656) the seventh^G1722^G1442 day^G2250 from^G575 all^G3956 his^G846 works^G2041.

⁵ and in this place again, “They will not enter into my rest.”

KJVAnd^G2532 in^G1722 this^G5129 place again^G3825, If^G1487 they shall enter^G1525^(G5695) into^G1519 my^G3450 rest^G2663.

⁶ Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter into it, and they to whom the good news was preached before failed to enter in because of disobedience,

KJVSeeing^G1893 therefore^G3767 it remaineth^G620^(G5743) that some^G5100 must enter^G1525^(G5629) therein^G1519^G846, and^G2532 they to whom it was first^G4386 preached^G2097^(G5685) entered^G1525 not^G3756 in^G1525^(G5627) because^G1223 of unbelief^G543:

⁷ he again defines a certain day, “today”, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.”

KJVAgain^G3825, he limiteth^G3724^(G5719) a certain^G5100 day^G2250, saying^G3004^(G5723) in^G1722 David^G1138, To day^G4594, after^G3326 so long^G5118 a time^G5550; as^G2531 it is said^G2046^(G5769), To day^G4594 if^G1437 ye will hear^G191^(G5661) his^G846 voice^G5456, harden^G4645^(G5725) not^G3361 your^G5216 hearts^G2588.

⁸ For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.

KJVFor^G1063 if^G1487 Jesus^G2424 had given^G2664 them^G846 rest^G2664^(G5656), then would he^G302 not^G3756 afterward^G3326^G5023 have spoken^G2980^(G5707) of^G4012 another^G243 day^G2250.

⁹ There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.

KJVThere remaineth^G620^(G5743) therefore^G686 a rest^G4520 to the people^G2992 of God^G2316.

¹⁰ For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.

KJVFor^G1063 he that is entered^G1525^(G5631) into^G1519 his^G846 rest^G2663, he^G846 also^G2532 hath ceased^G2664^(G5656) from^G575 his own^G846 works^G2041, as^G5618 God^G2316 did from^G575 his^G2398.

¹¹ Let’s therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.

KJVLet us labour^G4704^(G5661) therefore^G3767 to enter^G1525^(G5629) into^G1519 that^G1565 rest^G2663, lest^G3363 any man^G5100 fall^G4098^(G5632) after^G1722 the same^G846 example^G5262 of unbelief^G543.

¹² For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

KJVFor^G1063 the word^G3056 of God^G2316 is quick^G2198^(G5723), and^G2532 powerful^G1756, and^G2532 sharper^G5114 than^G5228 any^G3956 twoedged^G1366 sword^G3162, piercing^G1338^(G5740) even to^G891 the dividing asunder^G3311 of soul^G5590 and^G5037^G2532 spirit^G4151, and^G5037^G2532 of the joints^G719 and^G2532 marrow^G3452, and^G2532 is a discerner^G2924 of the thoughts^G1761 and^G2532 intents^G1771 of the heart^G2588.

¹³ There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.

KJVNeither^G2532^G3756 is there^G2076^(G5748) any creature^G2937 that is not manifest^G852 in his^G846 sight^G1799: but^G1161 all things^G3956 are naked^G1131 and^G2532 opened^G5136^(G5772) unto the eyes^G3788 of him^G846 with^G4314 whom^G3739 we have^G2254 to do^G3056.

¹⁴ Having then a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let’s hold tightly to our confession.

KJVSeeing^G2192 then^G3767 that we have^G2192^(G5723) a great^G3173 high priest^G749, that is passed into^G1330^(G5756) the heavens^G3772, Jesus^G2424 the Son^G5207 of God^G2316, let us hold fast^G2902^(G5725) our profession^G3671.

¹⁵ For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

KJVFor^G1063 we have^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 an high priest^G749 which cannot^G3361^G1410^(G5740) be touched with the feeling^G4834^(G5658) of our^G2257 infirmities^G769; but^G1161 was^G3985 in^G2596 all points^G3956 tempted^G3985^(G5772)^(G5625)^G3987^(G5772) like^G2596 as^G3665 we are, yet without^G5565 sin^G266.

¹⁶ Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.

KJVLet us^G4334 therefore^G3767 come^G4334^(G5741) boldly^G3326^G3954 unto the throne^G2362 of grace^G5485, that^G2443 we may obtain^G2983^(G5632) mercy^G1656, and^G2532 find^G2147^(G5632) grace^G5485 to help^G996 in^G1519 time of need^G2121.

WEB·Hebrews 3

¹Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,

KJVWherefore^G3606, holy^G40 brethren^G80, partakers^G3353 of the heavenly^G2032 calling^G2821, consider^G2657^(G5657) the Apostle^G652 and^G2532 High Priest^G749 of our^G2257 profession^G3671, Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424;

² who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.

KJVWho was^G5607^(G5752) faithful^G4103 to him that appointed^G4160^(G5660) him^G846, as^G5613 also^G2532 Moses^G3475 was faithful in^G1722 all^G3650 his^G846 house^G3624.

³ For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honor than the house.

KJVFor^G1063 this^G3778 man was counted worthy^G515^(G5769) of more^G4119 glory^G1391 than^G3844 Moses^G3475, inasmuch as^G2596^G3745 he who hath builded^G2680^(G5660) the house^G3624 hath more^G4119 honour^G5092 than^G2192^(G5719) the house^G846.

⁴ For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.

KJVFor^G1063 every^G3956 house^G3624 is builded^G2680^(G5743) by^G5259 some^G5100 man; but^G1161 he that built^G2680^(G5660) all things^G3956 is God^G2316.

⁵ Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,

KJVAnd^G2532 Moses^G3475 verily^G3303 was faithful^G4103 in^G1722 all^G3650 his^G846 house^G3624, as^G5613 a servant^G2324, for^G1519 a testimony^G3142 of those things which were to be spoken after^G2980^(G5702);

⁶ but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

KJVBut^G1161 Christ^G5547 as^G5613 a son^G5207 over^G1909 his own^G846 house^G3624; whose^G3739 house^G3624 are^G2070^(G5748) we^G2249, if^G1437^G4007 we hold fast^G2722^(G5632) the confidence^G3954 and^G2532 the rejoicing^G2745 of the hope^G1680 firm^G949 unto^G3360 the end^G5056.

⁷ Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,

KJVWherefore^G1352(as^G2531 the Holy^G40 Ghost^G4151 saith^G3004^(G5719), To day^G4594 if^G1437 ye will hear^G191^(G5661) his^G846 voice^G5456,

⁸ don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,

KJVHarden^G4645^(G5725) not^G3361 your^G5216 hearts^G2588, as^G5613 in^G1722 the provocation^G3894, in^G2596 the day^G2250 of temptation^G3986 in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048:

⁹ where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.

KJVWhen^G3757 your^G5216 fathers^G3962 tempted^G3985^(G5656) me^G3165, proved^G1381^(G5656) me^G3165, and^G2532 saw^G1492^(G5627) my^G3450 works^G2041 forty^G5062 years^G2094.

¹⁰ Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’

KJVWherefore^G1352 I was grieved^G4360^(G5656) with that^G1565 generation^G1074, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), They do^G4105 alway^G104 err^G4105^(G5746) in their heart^G2588; and^G1161 they^G846 have^G1097 not^G3756 known^G1097^(G5627) my^G3450 ways^G3598.

¹¹ As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’”

KJVSo^G5613 I sware^G3660^(G5656) in^G1722 my^G3450 wrath^G3709, They shall^G1525 not^G1487 enter^G1525^(G5695) into^G1519 my^G3450 rest^G2663.)

¹² Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;

KJVTake heed^G991^(G5720), brethren^G80, lest^G3379 there be^G2071^(G5704) in^G1722 any^G5100 of you^G5216 an evil^G4190 heart^G2588 of unbelief^G570, in^G1722 departing^G868^(G5629) from^G575 the living^G2198^(G5723) God^G2316.

¹³ but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

KJVBut^G235 exhort^G3870^(G5720) one another^G1438 daily^G2596^G1538^G2250, while^G891^G3739 it is called^G2564^(G5743) To day^G4594; lest^G3363 any^G5100 of^G1537 you^G5216 be hardened^G4645^(G5686) through the deceitfulness^G539 of sin^G266.

¹⁴ For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,

KJVFor^G1063 we are made^G1096^(G5754) partakers^G3353 of Christ^G5547, if^G1437^G4007 we hold^G2722^(G5632) the beginning^G746 of our confidence^G5287 stedfast^G949 unto^G3360 the end^G5056;

¹⁵ while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”

KJVWhile^G1722 it is said^G3004^(G5745), To day^G4594 if^G1437 ye will hear^G191^(G5661) his^G846 voice^G5456, harden^G4645^(G5725) not^G3361 your^G5216 hearts^G2588, as^G5613 in^G1722 the provocation^G3894.

¹⁶ For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?

KJVFor^G1063 some^G5100, when they had heard^G191^(G5660), did provoke^G3893^(G5656): howbeit^G235 not^G3756 all^G3956 that came^G1831^(G5631) out of^G1537 Egypt^G125 by^G1223 Moses^G3475.

¹⁷ With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

KJVBut^G1161 with whom^G5101 was he grieved^G4360^(G5656) forty^G5062 years^G2094? was it not^G3780 with them that had sinned^G264^(G5660), whose^G3739 carcases^G2966 fell^G4098^(G5627) in^G1722 the wilderness^G2048?

¹⁸ To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

KJVAnd^G1161 to whom^G5101 sware he^G3660^(G5656) that they should^G1525 not^G3361 enter^G1525^(G5696) into^G1519 his^G846 rest^G2663, but^G1508 to them that believed not^G544^(G5660)?

¹⁹ We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.

KJVSo^G2532 we see^G991^(G5719) that^G3754 they could^G1410^(G5675) not^G3756 enter in^G1525^(G5629) because^G1223 of unbelief^G570.
