Therefore, let us do everything that we can to come into that rest, to stop anyone from falling in the same manner: by failing to heed the commands. 12
11 Therefore, let us do everything that we can to come into that rest, to stop anyone from falling in the same manner: by failing to heed the commands. 12 For God's word is alive and carries power, and it is sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing until it divides soul and spirit, bones and marrow, and can perceive the heart's thoughts and ideas. 13 For there is not [any] creature that is not seen by him, but all things are naked and open to his eyes, he to whom it is necessary for us to answer.
14 Therefore, seeing that we have a mighty chief priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us keep our confession [of him]. 15 For we have as a chief priest, not a person who does not know [how] to have sympathy when we are weak, but a person who has ben tested in every manner as are we, but without sin. 16 Therefore may we come to the throne of grace having courage, to receive mercy and to find a grace helping us in our time of need.
