New Testament

Hebrews 4:5-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. And in this place again: "They shall not enter into my rest!"

6. Therefore, this is because certain ones remain who are to enter into it, and those to whom it was announced first did not enter into it, because of unbelief.

7. Again, he defines a certain day, after so much time, saying in David, "Today," just as it was stated above, "If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts."

8. For if Jesus had offered them rest, he would never have spoken, afterward, about another day.

9. And so, there remains a Sabbath of rest for the people of God.

10. For whoever has entered into his rest, the same has also rested from his works, just as God did from his.

11. Therefore, let us hasten to enter into that rest, so that no one may fall into the same example of unbelief.

12. For the Word of God is living and effective: more piercing than any two-edged sword, reaching to the division even between the soul and the spirit, even between the joints and the marrow, and so it discerns the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
