¹فلنخف انه مع بقاء وعد بالدخول الى راحته يرى احد منكم انه قد خاب منه.

¹We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short,

²لاننا نحن ايضا قد بشرنا كما اولئك لكن لم تنفع كلمة الخبر اولئك اذ لم تكن ممتزجة بالايمان في الذين سمعوا.

²for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,

³لاننا نحن المؤمنين ندخل الراحة كما قال حتى اقسمت في غضبي لن يدخلوا راحتي. مع كون الاعمال قد أكملت منذ تأسيس العالم.

³for we do enter into the rest — we who did believe, as He said, `So I sware in My anger, If they shall enter into My rest — ;` and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,

⁴لانه قال في موضع عن السابع هكذا واستراح الله في اليوم السابع من جميع اعماله.

⁴for He spake in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: `And God did rest in the seventh day from all His works;`

⁵وفي هذا ايضا لن يدخلوا راحتي.

⁵and in this [place] again, `If they shall enter into My rest — ;`

⁶فاذ بقي ان قوما يدخلونها والذين بشّروا اولا لم يدخلوا لسبب العصيان

⁶since then, it remaineth for certain to enter into it, and those who did first hear good news entered not in because of unbelief —

⁷يعيّن ايضا يوما قائلا في داود اليوم بعد زمان هذا مقداره كما قيل اليوم ان سمعتم صوته فلا تقسّوا قلوبكم.

⁷again He doth limit a certain day, `To-day,` (in David saying, after so long a time,) as it hath been said, `To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts,`

⁸لانه لو كان يشوع قد اراحهم لما تكلم بعد ذلك عن يوم آخر.

⁸for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not concerning another day have spoken after these things;

⁹اذا بقيت راحة لشعب الله.

⁹there doth remain, then, a sabbatic rest to the people of God,

¹⁰لان الذي دخل راحته استراح هو ايضا من اعماله كما الله من اعماله.

¹⁰for he who did enter into his rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.

¹¹فلنجتهد ان ندخل تلك الراحة لئلا يسقط احد في عبرة العصيان هذه عينها.

¹¹May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one in the same example of the unbelief may fall,

¹²لان كلمة الله حية وفعالة وامضى من كل سيف ذي حدين وخارقة الى مفرق النفس والروح والمفاصل والمخاخ ومميزة افكار القلب ونياته.

¹²for the reckoning of God is living, and working, and sharp above every two-edged sword, and piercing unto the dividing asunder both of soul and spirit, of joints also and marrow, and a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart;

¹³وليس خليقة غير ظاهرة قدامه بل كل شيء عريان ومكشوف لعيني ذلك الذي معه امرنا

¹³and there is not a created thing not manifest before Him, but all things [are] naked and open to His eyes — with whom is our reckoning.

¹⁴فاذ لنا رئيس كهنة عظيم قد اجتاز السموات يسوع ابن الله فلنتمسك بالاقرار.

¹⁴Having, then, a great chief priest passed through the heavens — Jesus the Son of God — may we hold fast the profession,

¹⁵لان ليس لنا رئيس كهنة غير قادر ان يرثي لضعفاتنا بل مجرب في كل شيء مثلنا بلا خطية

¹⁵for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but [one] tempted in all things in like manner — apart from sin;

¹⁶فلنتقدم بثقة الى عرش النعمة لكي ننال رحمة ونجد نعمة عونا في حينه

¹⁶we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of the grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace — for seasonable help.
