Hebrews 3

1 Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, set your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess.

Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;

2 He was faithful to the One who appointed Him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house.

who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in his house.

3 For Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.

For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who built the house has more honor than the house.

4 And every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.

For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.

5 Now Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house, testifying to what would be spoken later.

Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,

6 But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are His house, if we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope of which we boast.

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope.

7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear His voice,

Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice,

8 do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,

do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,

9 where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.

where your fathers tested me and challenged me, and saw my works for forty years.

10 Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’

Therefore I was displeased with this generation, and said, 'They always err in their heart, but they did not know my ways;'

11 So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’”

as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'"

12 See to it, brothers, that none of you has a wicked heart of unbelief that turns away from the living God.

Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;

13 But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.

but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

14 We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance we had at first.

For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end:

15 As it has been said: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.”

while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."

16 For who were the ones who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?

For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, did not all those who came out of Egypt by Moses?

17 And with whom was God angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

With whom was he displeased forty years? Was not it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

18 And to whom did He swear that they would never enter His rest? Was it not to those who disobeyed?

To whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

19 So we see that it was because of their unbelief that they were unable to enter.

We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
