Hebrews 4:9 in context

The verses around it, from Hebrews 4.

5 And again, as He says in the passage above: “They shall never enter My rest.”

6 Since, then, it remains for some to enter His rest, and since those who formerly heard the good news did not enter because of their disobedience,

7 God again designated a certain day as “Today,” when a long time later He spoke through David as was just stated: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”

8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.

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

10 For whoever enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from His.

11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.

12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
