Hebrews 3

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

Whence, holy brethren, partners, in a heavenly calling, attentively consider the Apostle and High—priest of our confession—Jesus

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

As one, faithful, to him who made him: as, Moses also, in [all] his house.

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

For, of more glory than Moses, hath, this one been counted worthy—by as much as more honour than, the house, hath, he that prepared it;

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

For, every house, is prepared by someone, —but, he that hath prepared all things, is, God.

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

Even Moses, indeed, was faithful in all his house, as an attendant, for a witness of the things which were to be spoken;

6 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.

But, Christ, as, a Son, over his house, —whose house are, we, —if, the freedom of speech and boast of the hope, [throughout, firm, ] we hold fast.

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

Wherefore, —according as saith the Holy Spirit—To-day, if, unto his voice ye would hearken, do not

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

harden your hearts, —as in the embitterment, in the day of testing in the desert,

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

When your fathers tested by proving, and saw my works forty years.

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

Wherefore I was sore vexed with this generation, and said, Always err they in their heart; —howbeit, they, learned not my ways:

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

So I sware in mine anger—they shall not enter into my rest!—

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

Be taking heed, brethren, lest at any time, there shall be in any one of you, a wicked heart of unbelief, in revolting from a Living God.

13 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.

But be exhorting one another, on each successive day, —while the To-day is being named! lest any from among you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

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

For, partners of the Christ, have we become, —if, at least, the beginning of the confidence, throughout, firm, we hold fast:

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

So long as it is said—To-day, if, unto his voice, ye would hearken, do not harden your hearts, —as in the embitterment.

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

For, who, though they heard, caused embitterment? Nay, indeed! did not all who come forth out of Egypt through Moses?

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

But, with whom, was be sore vexed forty years? Was it not with them who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the desert?

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

But, unto whom, sware he, that they should not enter into his rest, —save unto them who were obstinate?

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

And we see, that they were not able to enter, because of unbelief.
