¹Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.

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

²For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard didn’t profit them, because it wasn’t mixed with faith by those who heard.

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

³For 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”; Psalm 95:11 although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

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

⁴For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, “God rested on the seventh day from all his works”; Genesis 2:2

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

⁵and in this place again, “They will not enter into my rest.” Psalm 95:11

⁵وفي هذا ايضا لن يدخلوا راحتي.

⁶Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter therein, and they to whom the good news was before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience,

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

⁷he again defines a certain day, today, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.” Psalm 95:7-8

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

⁸For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.

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

⁹There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.

⁹اذا بقيت راحة لشعب الله.

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

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

¹¹Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.

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

¹²For 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.

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

¹³There 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.

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

¹⁴Having then a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession.

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

¹⁵For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

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

¹⁶Let 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.

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