Hebrews 4

1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you might seem to have failed [of it].

Therfor drede we, lest perauenture while the biheest of entryng in to his reste is left, that ony of vs be gessid to be awei.

2 For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard.

For it is told also to vs, as to hem. And the word that was herd profitide not to hem, not meynd to feith of tho thingis that thei herden.

3 For we enter into the rest who have believed; as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest; although the works had been completed from [the] foundation of [the] world.

For we that han bileued, schulen entre in to reste, as he seide, As Y swoor in my wraththe, thei schulen not entre in to my reste. And whanne the werkis weren maad perfit at the ordynaunce of the world,

4 For he has said somewhere of the seventh [day] thus, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works:

he seide thus in a place of the seuenthe dai, And God restide in the seuenthe dai from alle hise werkis.

5 and in this again, If they shall enter into my rest.

And in this place eftsoone, Thei schulen not entre in to my reste.

6 Seeing therefore it remains that some enter into it, and those who first received the glad tidings did not enter in on account of not hearkening to the word,

Therfor for it sueth, that summen schulen entre in to it, and thei to whiche it was teld to bifor, entriden not for her vnbileue.

7 again he determines a certain day, saying, in David, 'To-day,' after so long a time; (according as it has been said before), To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Eftsoone he termyneth sum dai, and seith in Dauith, To dai, aftir so myche tyme of tyme, as it is biforseid, To dai if ye han herd his vois, nyle ye hardne youre hertis.

8 For if Jesus had brought them into rest, he would not have spoken afterwards about another day.

For if Jhesus hadde youun reste to hem, he schulde neuere speke of othere aftir this dai.

9 There remains then a sabbatism to the people of God.

Therfor the sabat is left to the puple of God.

10 For he that has entered into his rest, he also has rested from his works, as God did from his own.

For he that is entrid in to his reste, restide of hise werkis, as also God of hise.

11 Let us therefore use diligence to enter into that rest, that no one may fall after the same example of not hearkening to the word.

Therfor haste we to entre in to that reste, that no man falle in to the same ensaumple of vnbileue. For the word of God is quyk,

12 For the word of God [is] living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to [the] division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of [the] heart.

and spedi in worching, and more able to perse than any tweyne eggid swerd, and stretchith forth to the departynge of the soule and of the spirit, and of the ioynturis and merewis, and demere of thouytis, and of intentis and hertis.

13 And there is not a creature unapparent before him; but all things [are] naked and laid bare to his eyes, with whom we have to do.

And no creature is vnuisible in the siyt of God. For alle thingis ben nakid and opyn to hise iyen, to whom a word to vs.

14 Having therefore a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast the confession.

Therfor we that han a greet bischop, that perside heuenes, Jhesu, the sone of God, holde we the knoulechyng of oure hope.

15 For we have not a high priest not able to sympathise with our infirmities, but tempted in all things in like manner, sin apart.

For we han not a bischop, that may not haue compassioun on oure infirmytees, but was temptid bi alle thingis bi lycnesse, with oute synne.

16 Let us approach therefore with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace for seasonable help.

Therfor go we with trist to the trone of his grace, that we gete merci, and fynde grace in couenable help.
