Hebrews 4:2 - New American Standard Bible 1995 with Strong NumbersFor indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not united by faith in those who heard. See the chapterMore versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 1769For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. See the chapterAmplified Bible - Classic EditionFor indeed we have had the glad tidings [Gospel of God] proclaimed to us just as truly as they [the Israelites of old did when the good news of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the message they heard did not benefit them, because it was not mixed with faith (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe). See the chapterAmerican Standard Version (1901)For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard. See the chapterCommon English BibleWe also had the good news preached to us, just as the Israelites did. However, the message they heard didn’t help them because they weren’t united in faith with the ones who listened to it. See the chapterCatholic Public Domain VersionFor this was announced to us in a similar manner as to them. But the mere hearing of the word did not benefit them, since it was not joined together with a faith in those things that they heard. See the chapter |
