Hebrews 4:1-7
1Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have 1come short of it. 2For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but 2the word 3they heard did not profit them, because 4it was not united by faith in those who heard. 3For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said, “5As I swore in My wrath, They shall not enter My rest,” although His works were finished 6from the foundation of the world. 4For He has said 7somewhere concerning the seventh day: “8And God 9rested on the seventh day from all His works”; 5and again in this passage, “10They shall not enter My rest.” 6Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of 11disobedience, 7He again fixes a certain day, “Today,” saying 12through David after so long a time just 13as has been said before, “14Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts.”
