Hebrews 4:13

Hebrews 4:13:

International Standard Version (©2008)
No creature can hide from him, but everyone is exposed and helpless before the eyes of the one to whom we must give a word of explanation.

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
No creature can hide from God. Everything is uncovered and exposed for him to see. We must answer to him.

King James Bible
Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Bible in Basic English
And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

English Revised Version
And there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Young's Literal Translation
and there is not a created thing not manifest before Him, but all things are naked and open to His eyes -- with whom is our reckoning.


Scary words. There's no such thing as a secret when you're dealing with God.

You might hide your sin from your family, friends, neighbors. You might hide it from the authorities. You might even do it while you're drunk so that you don't remember it in the morning -- effectively hiding it from yourself. But you can't hide it from God.
