OET (OET-RV)That’s why we might be afraid: because although we had a promise to enter his rest, some of you might fail to achieve it,

So we must beware of the possibility that God may consider that some of you have failed to enter the place of resting eternally as the Israelites did not enter the place where they would rest.

LEBTherefore let us fear, while there[fn] remains a promise of entering into his rest, that none of you appear to fall short of it.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

4:1 To fear God means to experience an appropriate reverence, even awe, for God and his will. It would be the worst of tragedies to fail to experience what God has promised.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὖν

therefore

Here, the word Therefore introduces an exhortation that is based on everything that the author has said about the Israelite ancestors in 3:7–19. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces an exhortation that is based on what has been said. Alternate translation: “Because what I have just said is true”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν κατάπαυσιν αὐτοῦ

/to/_come_in into the rest ˱of˲_him

Here and throughout this chapter, the word rest could refer to: (1) the state of “resting.” Alternate translation: “to participate in the way that God rests” or “to rest with him” (2) the place where people rest, particularly the land that God promised to give to his people. Alternate translation: “to enter into God’s resting place” or “to enter into the land of rest”

δοκῇ & ὑστερηκέναι

/may_be/_supposing & /to_have/_falling_short

Here, the phrase seem to have failed could indicate that: (1) a person is showing the outward signs of having failed. Alternate translation: “look like you have failed to attain it” (2) someone might think that he or she has failed. Alternate translation: “might think that you have failed to attain it” (3) God considers them to have failed. Alternate translation: “might be judged to have failed to attain it”
