Hebrews 4:3-5
New English Translation
3 For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, “As I swore in my anger, ‘They will never enter my rest!’”[a] And yet God’s works[b] were accomplished from the foundation of the world. 4 For he has spoken somewhere about the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all his works,”[c] 5 but to repeat the text cited earlier:[d] “They will never enter my rest!”
