< Hebrews 3 >

1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
2 Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.
Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses [was faithful] in all his house.
3 For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house, hath greater honour than the house.
For this [man] was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.
For every house is builded by some [man]; but he that built all things [is] God.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:
And Moses verily [was] faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;
6 But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.
But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
7 Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: Today if you shall hear his voice,
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 desert,
Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,
When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways,
Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in [their] heart; and they have not known my ways.
11 As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.
So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called today, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.
For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.
While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?
But with whom was he grieved forty years? [was it] not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?
And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.
So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
