1Therefore, let us fear lest — while a promise of entering His rest still remains — any one of you should seem to have fallen short of it.
2For good news has been proclaimed to us just as it was to them; but the logos(word) they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united in faith with those who listened.
3For we who have believed are entering that rest, just as He has said, "As I swore in my orge(anger, wrath), 'They shall not enter my rest'" — though His works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For somewhere He has said this about the seventh day: "And God rested on the seventh day from all His works,"
5and again in this passage, "They shall not enter my rest."
6Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,
7He again defines a certain day — "Today" — saying through David, after so long a chronos(chronological-time), as has been said, "Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your kardiai(hearts, soul-domains)."
8For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of another day afterward.
9So then, a Sabbatismos(Sabbath-rest) remains for the people of God,
10for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his own works, just as God did from His.
11Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same pattern of disobedience.
12For the logos(word) of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of psyche(soul) and pneuma(spirit), of joints and marrow, and discerning the enthumeseis(intentions, thoughts) and ennoiai(attitudes, dispositions) of the kardia(heart, soul-domain).
13And no creature is hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
14Having then a great high priest who has passed through the heavens — Yeshua(Jesus), the Son of God — let us hold fast our confession.
15For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin.
16Let us then draw near with parresia(confidence, boldness) to the throne of charis(grace), so that we may receive mercy and find charis(grace) to help in time of need.
