Hebrews 4:6-11

English Standard Version

⁶Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news ^(A)failed to enter because of disobedience, ⁷again he appoints a certain day, “Today,” saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted,

^(B)“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts.”

⁸For if Joshua had given them rest, God^[a] would not have spoken of another day later on. ⁹So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, ¹⁰for whoever has entered God's rest has also ^(C)rested from his works as God did from his.

¹¹Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so ^(D)that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁶Since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news did not enter because of disobedience,^(A) ⁷again, He specifies a certain day—today—speaking through David after such a long time, as previously stated:

Today, if you hear His voice,
do not harden your hearts.^(B)^[a]

⁸For if Joshua^(C) had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day. ⁹Therefore, a Sabbath rest remains for God’s people. ¹⁰For the person who has entered His rest has rested from his own works, just as God did from His.^(D) ¹¹Let us then make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience.
