Hebrews 4:2

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

For we also received the good news just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, since they did not share the faith of those who comprehended it.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
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.
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G2532}{G1063} unto us was{G2070}{(G5748)} the gospel preached{G2097}{(G5772)}, as well as{G2509} unto them{G2548}: but{G235} the word{G3056} preached{G189} did{G5623} not{G3756} profit{G5623}{(G5656)} them{G1565}, not{G3361} being mixed{G4786}{(G5772)} with faith{G4102} in them that heard{G191}{(G5660)} it.
Strong's King James
(2) For we have had good news proclaimed to us, just as them also. Yet The Word of hearing didn't benefit them because they weren't united in believing faith to those hearing.
The F.O.G*
[2] For we, like those who came before us, have received the radiant good news of God's rest. But merely hearing the message wasn't enough for them – it needed to be embraced with deep, transforming faith. Without that vital trust, the words remained powerless in their lives.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,
