3. Mark 6:31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.

4. Mark 14:41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

5. Luke 12:19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

6. I Corinthians 16:18 For they have refreshed my spirit and your's: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.

7. II Corinthians 7:13 Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

Strongs #2663 katapausis ( 9 times) rest

1. Acts 7:49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool : what house will ye build me? saith the Lord:or what is the place of my rest?

Hebrews 3:7- 4:11
7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, 8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: 9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. 10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

2. 11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. 13But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.14For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; 15While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases
fell in the wilderness?

3. 18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.



4.  1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem
to come short of it. 2 For 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.

5-6. 3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they
shall enter into my
rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest(katapauo) the seventh day from all his works.


7. 5. And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. 6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: 7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. 8 For if Jesus had given them rest (katapauo), then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. 9 There remaineth therefore a rest(sabbatismos) to the people of God.


8. 10For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased(katapauo) from his own works, as God
    did from his.



9. 11Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
