8. For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken afterward about another day.
9. Consequently a Sabbath rest remains for the people of God.
10. For the one who enters God’s rest has also rested from his works, just as God did from his own works.
11. Thus we must make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.
12. For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing even to the point of dividing soul from spirit, and joints from marrow; it is able to judge the desires and thoughts of the heart.
13. And no creature is hidden from God, but everything is naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must render an account.
14. Therefore since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.
15. For we do not have a high priest incapable of sympathizing with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sin.
