Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

4:1
Φοβηθῶμεν οὖν μήποτε καταλειπομένης ἐπαγγελίας εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν αὐτοῦ δοκῇ τις ἐξ ὑμῶν ὑστερηκέναι·
Timeamus ergo ne forte relicta pollicitatione introëundi in requiem ejus, existimetur aliquis ex vobis deesse.
ንፍራህ እንከ እምእለ ሰምዑ ወኢንኅድግ ትእዛዞ ከመ ንባእ ውስተ ዕረፍቱ ወለእመ ቦ እንጋ ዘይትረከብ እምኔክሙ ውስተ ስሒት ዘልማድ ወይጸንዕ ኢይምሰሎ ዘየኀድግዎ ከመ ይባእ ውስተ ዕረፍቱ።
Let’s fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest.
4:2
καὶ γάρ ἐσμεν εὐηγγελισμένοι καθάπερ κἀκεῖνοι, ἀλλ’ οὐκ ὠφέλησεν ὁ λόγος τῆς ἀκοῆς ἐκείνους, μὴ συνκεκερασμένος τῇ πίστει τοῖς ἀκούσασιν.
Etenim et nobis nuntiatum est, quemadmodum et illis : sed non profuit illis sermo auditus, non admistus fidei ex iis quae audierunt.
እስመ ስሙዓን ንሕነ ከመ ሰምዑ እልክቱ ወባሕቱ ለእልክቱሰ ኢበቍዖሙ ቃል ዘሰምዑ እስመ ኢተቶስሐ ልቦሙ በሃይማኖት ምስለ እለ ሰምዑ።
For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they also did, but the word they heard didn’t profit them, because it wasn’t mixed with faith by those who heard.
4:3
εἰσερχόμεθα γὰρ εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν οἱ πιστεύσαντες, καθὼς εἴρηκεν, ὡς ὤμοσα ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ μου, εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου, καίτοι τῶν ἔργων ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου γενηθέντων.
Ingrediemur enim in requiem, qui credidimus : quemadmodum dixit : Sicut juravi in ira mea : Si introibunt in requiem meam : et quidem operibus ab institutione mundi perfectis.
ንበውእ ንሕነሰ ውስተ ዕረፍቱ እስመ አመነ ወእፎ እንከ ይቤ «በከመ መሐልኩ በመዓትየ ከመ ኢይበውኡ ውስተ ዕረፍትየ» ወናሁ ዝንቱ ውእቱ ምግባሩ ለእግዚአብሔር ዘእምፍጥረተ ዓለም ዘኮነ።
For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my rest;” although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4:4
εἴρηκεν γάρ που περὶ τῆς ἑβδόμης οὕτως, καὶ κατέπαυσεν ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ·
Dixit enim in quodam loco de die septima sic : Et requievit Deus die septima ab omnibus operibus suis.
በከመ ይቤ በእንተ ሰንበት ወአዕረፈ እግዚአብሔር በዕለተ ሰንበት እምኵሉ ግብሩ።
For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, “God rested on the seventh day from all his works;”
4:5
καὶ ἐν τούτῳ πάλιν, εἰ εἰσελεύσονται εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσίν μου.
Et in isto rursum : Si introibunt in requiem meam.
ወካዕበ ይቤ «ኢይበውኡ ውስተ ዕረፍትየ።»
and in this place again, “They will not enter into my rest.”
4:6
ἐπεὶ οὖν ἀπολείπεται τινὰς εἰσελθεῖν εἰς αὐτήν, καὶ οἱ πρότερον εὐαγγελισθέντες οὐκ εἰσῆλθον δι’ ἀπείθειαν,
Quoniam ergo superest introire quosdam in illam, et ii, quibus prioribus annuntiatum est, non introierunt propter incredulitatem :
እስመ ቦ ሰብእ እለ ቦሙ ፍኖት ከመ ይባኡ ህየ ወቀደምትሰ ሰሚዖሙ ኢቦኡ እስመ ክሕዱ።
Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter into it, and they to whom the good news was preached before failed to enter in because of disobedience,
4:7
πάλιν τινὰ ὁρίζει ἡμέραν, σήμερον, ἐν Δαυεὶδ λέγων μετὰ τοσοῦτον χρόνον, καθὼς προείρηται, σήμερον ἐὰν τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ἀκούσητε, μὴ σκληρύνητε τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν.
iterum terminat diem quemdam, Hodie, in David dicendo, post tantum temporis, sicut supra dictum est : Hodie si vocem ejus audieritis, nolite obdurare corda vestra.
ወእንበይነ መኑ ይብል ከማሁ ካልአ ዕለተ እምድኅረ ጕንዱይ መዋዕል በከመ ተጽሕፈ ዘቀዳሚ እስመ ይቤ ዳዊት «ዮም ለእመ ሰማዕክሙ ቃሎ ኢታጽንዑ ልበክሙ።»
he again defines a certain day, “today”, saying through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.”
4:8
εἰ γὰρ αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς κατέπαυσεν, οὐκ ἂν περὶ ἄλλης ἐλάλει μετὰ ταῦτα ἡμέρας.
Nam si eis Jesus requiem praestitisset, numquam de alia loqueretur, posthac, die.
ሶበሰ ሎሙ አዕረፎሙ ኢያሱ እምኢይቤ በእንተ ካልእ እምድኅረ እማንቱ መዋዕል።
For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken afterward of another day.
4:9
ἄρα ἀπολείπεται σαββατισμὸς τῷ λαῷ τοῦ θεοῦ·
Itaque relinquitur sabbatismus populo Dei.
ተዐውቀኬ ከመ ሀሎ ዕረፍት ኀበ ይበውኡ ሕዝበ እግዚአብሔር ቀዋሚ ዘይነብር።
There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
4:10
ὁ γὰρ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς κατέπαυσεν ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ ὥσπερ ἀπὸ τῶν ἰδίων ὁ θεός.
Qui enim ingressus est in requiem ejus, etiam ipse requievit ab operibus suis, sicut a suis Deus.
እስመ ዘቦአ ውስተ ዕረፍት ናሁኬ አዕረፈ ውእቱ እምኵሉ ግብሩ በከመ አዕረፈ እግዚአብሔር እምኵሉ ግብሩ።
For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.
4:11
Σπουδάσωμεν οὖν εἰσελθεῖν εἰς ἐκείνην τὴν κατάπαυσιν, ἵνα μὴ ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ τις ὑποδείγματι πέσῃ τῆς ἀπειθείας.
Festinemus ergo ingredi in illam requiem : ut ne in idipsum quis incidat incredulitatis exemplum.
ናስተፋጥን እንከ ከመ ንባእ ውስተ ዕረፍቱ ከመ ኢንደቅ ከማሆሙ ለእሙንቱ እለ ዐለዉ።
Let’s therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.
4:12
ζῶν γὰρ ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐνεργὴς καὶ τομώτερος ὑπὲρ πᾶσαν μάχαιραν δίστομον καὶ διϊκνούμενος ἄχρι μερισμοῦ ψυχῆς καὶ πνεύματος, ἁρμῶν τε καὶ μυελῶν, καὶ κριτικὸς ἐνθυμήσεων καὶ ἐννοιῶν καρδίας·
Vivus est enim sermo Dei, et efficax et penetrabilior omni gladio ancipiti : et pertingens usque ad divisionem animae ac spiritus : compagum quoque ac medullarum, et discretor cogitationum et intentionum cordis.
እስመ ሕያው ቃለ እግዚአብሔር ወጽኑዕ ወይበልኅ እምኵሉ ሰይፍ ዘክልኤ አፉሁ ወይፈልጥ ነፍሰ እመንፈስ ወይሌሊ ሥርወ እመሌሊት ወየኀሥሥ ኅሊና ወፍትወተ ወምክረ ልብ።
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
4:13
καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν κτίσις ἀφανὴς ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, πάντα δὲ γυμνὰ καὶ τετραχηλισμένα τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ, πρὸς ὃν ἡμῖν ὁ λόγος.
Et non est ulla creatura invisibilis in conspectu ejus : omnia autem nuda et aperta sunt oculis ejus, ad quem nobis sermo.
ወአልቦ ዘተፈጥረ ዘኢኮነ ክሡተ በቅድሜሁ ወኵሉ ክሡት ወስጡሕ በቅድመ አዕይንቲሁ ወሎቱ ናወሥእ በእንተ ኵሉ ዘገበርነ።
There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.
4:14
Ἔχοντες οὖν ἀρχιερέα μέγαν διεληλυθότα τοὺς οὐρανούς, Ἰησοῦν τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ, κρατῶμεν τῆς ὁμολογίας·
Habentes ergo pontificem magnum qui penetravit caelos, Jesum Filium Dei, teneamus confessionem.
ወብነ ሊቀ ካህናት ዐቢይ ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ወልደ እግዚአብሔር ዘተለዐለ እምሰማያት ናጽንዕ እንከ አሚነ ቦቱ።
Having then a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let’s hold tightly to our confession.
4:15
οὐ γὰρ ἔχομεν ἀρχιερέα μὴ δυνάμενον συνπαθῆσαι ταῖς ἀσθενείαις ἡμῶν, πεπειρασμένον δὲ κατὰ πάντα καθ’ ὁμοιότητα χωρὶς ἁμαρτίας.
Non enim habemus pontificem qui non possit compati infirmitatibus nostris : tentatum autem per omnia pro similitudine absque peccato.
እስመ ኢኮነ ሊቀ ካህናቲነ ዘኢይክል ሐሚመ ለድካምነ ዳእሙ ምኩር በኵሉ አምሳሊነ ዘእንበለ ኀጢአት ባሕቲታ።
For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
4:16
προσερχώμεθα οὖν μετὰ παρρησίας τῷ θρόνῳ τῆς χάριτος, ἵνα λάβωμεν ἔλεος καὶ χάριν εὕρωμεν εἰς εὔκαιρον βοήθειαν.
Adeamus ergo cum fiducia ad thronum gratiae : ut misericordiam consequamur, et gratiam inveniamus in auxilio opportuno.
ንቅረብ እንከ በሞገስ ኀበ መንበረ ጸጋሁ ከመ ንንሣእ ሣህሎ ወንርከብ ጸጋሁ ይኩነነ ረድኤተ ለጊዜ ምንዳቤነ።
Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.
