“You founded the earth in the beginning, Lord, ¹ 

and the heavens are the works of your hands.

Hebrews 6:10

6:10 For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love you have demonstrated for his name, in having served and continuing to serve the saints.

Hebrews 13:21

Hebrews 13:17

13:17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over your souls and will give an account for their work. ⁵  Let them do this ⁶  with joy and not with complaints, for this would be no advantage for you.

Hebrews 4:10

4:10 For the one who enters God’s ⁷  rest has also rested from his works, just as God did from his own works.

Hebrews 5:4

Hebrews 3:5

3:5 Now Moses was faithful in all God’s ¹¹  house ¹²  as a servant, to testify to the things that would be spoken.

[1:10]  ¹ sn You founded the earth…your years will never run out. In its original setting Ps 102:25-27 refers to the work of God in creation, but here in Hebrews 1:10-12 the writer employs it in reference to Christ, the Lord, making a strong argument for the essential deity of the Son.

[13:21]  ² tc Some mss (C P Ψ 6 629* 630 1505 pm latt sy^h) read ὑμῖν (Jumin, “in you”) here, but ἡμῖν (Jhmin) has stronger external support (Ì⁴⁶ א A D^vid K 0243 0285 33 81 104 326 365 629^c 1175 1739 1881 pm sy^p co). It is also more likely that ἡμῖν would have been changed to ὑμῖν in light of the “you” which occurs at the beginning of the verse than vice versa.

[13:21]  ³ tc ‡ Most mss (א A [C*] 0243 0285 33 1739 1881 Ï latt) include the words “and ever” here, but the shorter reading (supported by Ì⁴⁶ C³ D Ψ 6 104 365 1505 al) is preferred on internal grounds. It seemed more likely that scribes would assimilate the wording to the common NT doxological expression “for ever and ever,” found especially in the Apocalypse (cf., e.g., 1 Tim 1:17; 2 Tim 4:18; Rev 4:9; 22:5) than to the “forever” of Heb 13:8. Nevertheless, a decision is difficult here. NA²⁷ places the phrase in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

[4:4]  ³ sn A quotation from Gen 2:2.

[13:17]  ⁴ tn Or “as ones who will give an account”; Grk “as giving an account.”

[13:17]  ⁵ tn Grk “that they may do this.”

[4:10]  ⁵ tn Grk “his”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:4]  ⁶ sn Honor refers here to the honor of the high priesthood.

[5:4]  ⁷ tn Grk “by himself, on his own.”

[5:4]  ⁸ tn Grk “being called by God.”

[3:5]  ⁷ tn Grk “his”; in the translation the referent (God) has been specified for clarity.

[3:5]  ⁸ sn A quotation from Num 12:7.

[4:3]  ⁸ sn A quotation from Ps 95:11.

[4:3]  ⁹ tn Grk “although the works,” continuing the previous reference to God. The referent (God) is specified in the translation for clarity.
