希伯來書 4

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)

只有信的人得享安息

4 我們既蒙留下有進入他安息的應許，就當畏懼，免得我們^[a]中間或有人似乎是趕不上了。 ²因為有福音傳給我們，像傳給他們一樣。只是所聽見的道於他們無益，因為他們沒有信心與所聽見的道調和。 ³但我們已經相信的人得以進入那安息，正如神所說：「我在怒中起誓說：『他們斷不可進入我的安息。』」其實造物之工，從創世以來已經成全了。 ⁴論到第七日，有一處說：「到第七日神就歇了他一切的工。」 ⁵又有一處說：「他們斷不可進入我的安息。」 ⁶既有必進安息的人，那先前聽見福音的因為不信從，不得進去， ⁷所以過了多年，就在大衛的書上又限定一日，如以上所引的說：「你們今日若聽他的話，就不可硬著心。」 ⁸若是約書亞已叫他們享了安息，後來神就不再提別的日子了。 ⁹這樣看來，必另有一安息日的安息為神的子民存留。 ¹⁰因為那進入安息的，乃是歇了自己的工，正如神歇了他的工一樣。 ¹¹所以，我們務必竭力進入那安息，免得有人學那不信從的樣子跌倒了。

神的道是有功效的

¹²神的道是活潑的，是有功效的，比一切兩刃的劍更快，甚至魂與靈、骨節與骨髓，都能刺入、剖開，連心中的思念和主意都能辨明； ¹³並且被造的沒有一樣在他面前不顯然的，原來萬物在那與我們有關係的主眼前，都是赤露敞開的。

大祭司耶穌能體恤人的軟弱

¹⁴我們既然有一位已經升入高天尊榮的大祭司，就是神的兒子耶穌，便當持定所承認的道。 ¹⁵因我們的大祭司並非不能體恤我們的軟弱，他也曾凡事受過試探，與我們一樣，只是他沒有犯罪。 ¹⁶所以我們只管坦然無懼地來到施恩的寶座前，為要得憐恤，蒙恩惠，做隨時的幫助。

Hebrews 4

New International Reader's Version

God’s People Enter His Sabbath Rest

4 God’s promise of enjoying his rest still stands. So be careful that none of you fails to receive it. ²The good news was announced to our people of long ago. It has also been preached to us. The message they heard didn’t have any value for them. That’s because they didn’t share the faith of those who obeyed. ³Now we who have believed enjoy that rest. God said,

“When I was angry, I made a promise.
I said, ‘They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ” (Psalm 95:11)

Ever since God created the world, his works have been finished. ⁴Somewhere he spoke about the seventh day. He said, “On the seventh day God rested from all his works.” (Genesis 2:2) ⁵In the part of Scripture I talked about earlier God spoke. He said, “They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.” (Psalm 95:11)

⁶It is still true that some people will enjoy this rest. But those who had the good news announced to them earlier didn’t go in. That’s because they didn’t obey. ⁷So God again chose a certain day. He named it Today. He did this when he spoke through David a long time later. Here is what was written in the Scripture already given.

“Listen to his voice today.
If you hear it, don’t be stubborn.” (Psalm 95:7,8)

⁸Suppose Joshua had given them rest. If he had, God would not have spoken later about another day. ⁹So there is still a Sabbath rest for God’s people. ¹⁰God rested from his work. Those who enjoy God’s rest also rest from their works. ¹¹So let us make every effort to enjoy that rest. Then no one will die by disobeying as they did.

¹²The word of God is alive and active. It is sharper than any sword that has two edges. It cuts deep enough to separate soul from spirit. It can separate bones from joints. It judges the thoughts and purposes of the heart. ¹³Nothing God created is hidden from him. His eyes see everything. He will hold us responsible for everything we do.

Jesus Is the Great High Priest

¹⁴We have a great high priest. He has gone up into heaven. He is Jesus the Son of God. So let us hold firmly to what we say we believe. ¹⁵We have a high priest who can feel it when we are weak and hurting. We have a high priest who has been tempted in every way, just as we are. But he did not sin. ¹⁶So let us boldly approach God’s throne of grace. Then we will receive mercy. We will find grace to help us when we need it.
