Hebrews 4:6-13

New International Version

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,^{(A) 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,^(C) God would not have spoken^(D) 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,^[b](E) just as God did from his.^{(F) 11} Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.^(G)

¹² For the word of God^(H) is alive^(I) and active.^(J) Sharper than any double-edged sword,^(K) it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.^{(L) 13} Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight.^(M) Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
