Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news proclaimed to them failed to enter because of (A)disobedience, He again determines a certain day, “Today,” saying [a]through David after so long a time just (B)as has been said before,

(C)Today if you hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts.”

For (D)if [b]Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that. So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. 10 For the one who has entered His rest has himself also (E)rested from his works, as (F)God did from His. 11 Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall into the same (G)example of (H)disobedience.

Since therefore it remains open for some to enter it and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience, again he sets a certain day—“today”—saying through David much later, in the words already quoted,

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

For if Joshua had given them rest, God[a] would not speak later about another day. So then, a Sabbath rest still remains for the people of God, 10 for those who enter God’s[b] rest also rest from their labors as God did from his. 11 Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one may fall through such disobedience as theirs.
