히브리서 4
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
4 그러므로 하나님께서 안식에 들어가게 해 주시겠다는 약속이 아직도 남아 있는 동안에, 여러분 가운데 아무도 그 안식에 들어가지 못하는 사람이 없도록 두려운 마음으로 조심하십시오. 2 이스라엘 백성에게도, 우리에게도, 기쁜 소식이 전해졌습니다. 그러나 그들이 전해들은 말씀은 그들에게 아무 도움이 되지 못하였습니다. 그들은 기쁜 소식을 듣고, 그것을 믿음으로 받아들이지 않았기 때문입니다. 3 이제 그것을 믿은 우리만이 하나님의 안식에 들어가 쉼을 얻을 것입니다. 하나님께서는 믿지 않은 사람들을 두고 이렇게 말씀하셨습니다.
“그래서 나는 화가 나서 이렇게 맹세하였다.
‘그들은 결코 나의 안식에 들어와
쉼을 얻지 못하리라.’”(A)
사실 하나님께서 세상을 창조하셨을 때에 모든 일을 다 마치시고, 그 뒤로 쉬셨습니다. 4 성경[a] 어디에선가 일곱째 날에 대해 이렇게 말하고 있습니다. “그리고 일곱째 날에 하나님께서 모든 일을 마치고 쉬셨다.”(B) 5 그러나 위에서 말한 다른 구절에서는 “그들은 결코 나의 안식에 들어오지 못하리라.” 고 하셨습니다.
6 전에 자기들에게 전해진 하나님의 기쁜 소식을 들었으나 순종하지 않은 사람들은 하나님의 안식에 들어가지 못했습니다. 그러나 어떤 이들에게는 들어갈 기회가 아직도 남아 있습니다. 7 그래서 하나님께서는 당신의 안식에 들어갈 또 다른 때를 정하셨는데, 그때가 바로 오늘입니다. 하나님께서는 이 사실을 오랜 세월이 흐른 뒤에 다윗을 통하여 선포하셨습니다. 바로 앞에서 말한 성경 대목에서 이렇게 말씀하셨습니다.
“오늘
너희가 그분의 음성을 듣거든
무디고 고집스런 마음을 품지 말아라.”(C)
8 만일 여호수아가 이스라엘 백성에게 안식을 주었더라면, 하나님께서 나중에 또 다른 안식의 날에 대해 말씀하지 않으셨을 것입니다. 9 그렇다면 하나님의 백성에게는 일곱째 날의 안식[b]이 이미 이루어진 것이 아니고 앞으로 다가올 일로 남아 있습니다. 10 하나님의 안식에 들어가는 사람은, 하나님께서 당신의 일을 마치고 쉬신 것처럼, 그도 자기의 일을 마치고 쉬는 것입니다. 11 그러므로 우리는 그 안식에 들어가도록 있는 힘을 다해 노력합시다. 아무도 옛날 사람들처럼 순종하지 않다가 떨어져 나가는 일이 없도록 합시다.
12 하나님의 말씀[c]은 살아 움직입니다. 그것은 양날 칼보다 더 날카로워서, 정신과 영혼을 갈라내고, 뼈마디와 뼛골을 갈라내기까지 꿰뚫고 들어가, 마음에 품은 생각과 속셈을 자세히 살핍니다. 13 이 세상의 어느 것도 그분의 눈길을 피할 수 없습니다. 하나님 앞에서는 모든 것이 드러나며, 그분의 눈앞에서는 모든 것이 벌거숭이가 됩니다. 그분은 우리의 재판장이시니, 우리는 그분께 우리의 살아온 모습 그대로를 말씀드리지 않을 수 없습니다.
예수는 우리가 하나님 앞으로 나아가도록 도우신다
14 우리에게는 하늘로 들어가신 위대한 대제사장이 계십니다. 곧 하나님의 아들 예수이십니다. 그러니 우리가 고백하는 신앙을 굳게 지킵시다. 15 우리의 대제사장이신 예수는 우리의 연약함을 동정할 줄 모르는 그런 분이 아니십니다. 그분은 이 세상에 사실 때에, 우리와 똑같이 온갖 시험을 다 당하셨습니다. 그러나 결코 죄는 짓지 않으셨습니다. 16 이제 예수를 우리의 대제사장으로 모셨으니, 우리는 자신 있게 은혜의 보좌 앞으로 나아갈 수 있습니다. 그러면 필요한 때에 우리를 도와줄 하나님의 자비와 은혜를 받게 될 것입니다.
Hebrews 4
New King James Version
The Promise of Rest
4 Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, (A)let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. 2 For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, [a]not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. 3 For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said:
(B)“So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest,’ ”
although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: (C)“And God rested on the seventh day from all His works”; 5 and again in this place: (D)“They shall not enter My rest.”
6 Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience, 7 again He designates a certain day, saying in David, “Today,” after such a long time, as it has been said:
(E)“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts.”
8 For if [b]Joshua had (F)given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.
The Word Discovers Our Condition
11 (G)Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is (H)living and powerful, and (I)sharper than any (J)two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is (K)a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 (L)And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are (M)naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
Our Compassionate High Priest
14 Seeing then that we have a great (N)High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, (O)let us hold fast our confession. 15 For (P)we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but (Q)was in all points tempted as we are, (R)yet without sin. 16 (S)Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

New International Version
A Sabbath-Rest for the People of God
4 Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it.(A) 2 For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because they did not share the faith of those who obeyed.[a](B) 3 Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said,
And yet his works have been finished since the creation of the world. 4 For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”[c](D) 5 And again in the passage above he says, “They shall never enter my rest.”(E)
6 Therefore since it still remains for some to enter that rest, and since those who formerly had the good news proclaimed to them did not go in because of their disobedience,(F) 7 God again set a certain day, calling it “Today.” This he did when a long time later he spoke through David, as in the passage already quoted:
8 For if Joshua had given them rest,(H) God would not have spoken(I) later about another day. 9 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; 10 for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works,[e](J) just as God did from his.(K) 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.(L)
12 For the word of God(M) is alive(N) and active.(O) Sharper than any double-edged sword,(P) it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.(Q) 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight.(R) Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Jesus the Great High Priest
14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest(S) who has ascended into heaven,[f](T) Jesus the Son of God,(U) let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.(V) 15 For we do not have a high priest(W) who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are(X)—yet he did not sin.(Y) 16 Let us then approach(Z) God’s throne of grace with confidence,(AA) so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
