Hebrews 4
1 Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.
Bojmo se torej, da se ne bi komurkoli izmed vas zdelo, da je zamudil obljubo o vstopu v njegov počitek, ki nam je bila zapuščena.
2 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard did not profit them, because they were not united by faith with those who heard.
Kajti evangelij je bil oznanjen nam kakor tudi njim. Toda oznanjena beseda tem ni koristila, ker ni bila pridružena veri tistih, ki so jo slišali.
3 For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;" although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
Kajti mi, ki smo verovali, vstopamo v počitek, kakor pravi: »Kakor sem prisegel v svojem besu, če bodo vstopili v moj počitek; « čeprav so bila dela končana od ustanovitve sveta.
4 For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works;"
Kajti na nekem mestu je o sedmem dnevu govoril na ta način: »In Bog je počival sedmi dan od vseh svojih del.«
5 and in this place again, "They will not enter into my rest."
In na tem mestu ponovno: »Če bodo vstopili v moj počitek.«
6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and they to whom the good news was before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,
Ker torej ostaja to, da morajo nekateri vstopiti vanj in tisti, ki jim je bilo to najprej oznanjeno, zaradi nevere niso vstopili;
7 he again appoints a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), "Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."
znova omejuje nek dan, rekoč v Davidu: »Danes, « po tako dolgem času; kakor je rečeno: »Če boste danes zaslišali njegov glas, ne zakrknite svojih src.«
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.
Kajti če jim je Jezus dal počitek, potem pozneje ne bi govoril o drugem dnevu.
9 There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
Zaradi tega ostaja [šabatni] počitek za Božje ljudi.
10 For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.
Kajti kdor je vstopil v njegov počitek, je tudi prenehal s svojimi lastnimi deli, kakor je Bog s svojimi.
11 Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.
Trudimo se torej, da vstopimo v ta počitek, da ne bi katerikoli človek padel po istem zgledu nevere.
12 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Kajti Božja beseda je živa in močna in ostrejša kakor vsak dvorezen meč, ki prodre celó do ločitve duše in duha, sklepov in mozga ter je razpoznavalka misli in namenov srca.
13 There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Niti ni nobene stvari, ki se ne razpozna v njegovem pogledu, temveč so vse stvari razgaljene in odprte očem tistega, s katerim imamo opraviti.
14 Having then a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession.
Ker imamo veličastnega vélikega duhovnika, ki je prešel v nebesa, Jezusa, Božjega sina, torej trdno držimo svojo veroizpoved.
15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
Kajti nimamo vélikega duhovnika, ki ne more biti ganjen z občutenjem naših slabosti; temveč je bil skušan v vseh ozirih, podobno kakor smo mi, vendar brez greha.
16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need.
Pristopimo torej pogumno k prestolu milosti, da bomo lahko dosegli usmiljenje in našli milost za pomoč v času potrebe.
