³ For those of us who have belief come into his rest; even as he has said, As I said in my oath when I was angry, They may not come into my rest: though the works were done from the time of the making of the world.

¹¹ And being angry I made an oath, saying, They may not come into my rest.

²⁸ Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.

²⁹ Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls;

¹¹ And I made an oath in my wrath, that they might not come into my place of rest.

²⁰ Who was marked out by God before the making of the world, but was caused to be seen in these last times for you,

²⁶ For then he would have undergone a number of deaths from the time of the making of the world: but now he has come to us at the end of the old order, to put away sin by the offering of himself.

¹⁴ For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;

³⁵ That it might come true which was said by the prophet, Opening my mouth, I will give out stories; I will give knowledge of things kept secret from before all time.

¹¹ For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and the sea, and everything in them, and he took his rest on the seventh day: for this reason the Lord has given his blessing to the seventh day and made it holy.

³¹ And God saw everything which he had made and it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

⁴ Even as he made selection of us in him from the first, so that we might be holy and free from all evil before him in love:

¹ For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;

² Through whom, in the same way, we have been able by faith to come to this grace in which we now are; and let us have joy in hope of the glory of God.

¹⁶ This is what the Lord has said: Take your place looking out on the ways; make search for the old roads, saying, Where is the good way? and go in it that you may have rest for your souls. But they said, We will not go in it.

¹² To whom he said, This is the rest, give rest to him who is tired; and by this you may get new strength; but they would not give ear.
