Hebrews 4:11-16

New International Version

¹¹ Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.^(A)

¹² For the word of God^(B) is alive^(C) and active.^(D) Sharper than any double-edged sword,^(E) it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.^{(F) 13} Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight.^(G) Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

Jesus the Great High Priest

¹⁴ Therefore, since we have a great high priest^(H) who has ascended into heaven,^[a](I) Jesus the Son of God,^(J) let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.^{(K) 15} For we do not have a high priest^(L) who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are^(M)—yet he did not sin.^{(N) 16} Let us then approach^(O) God’s throne of grace with confidence,^(P) so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
