Hebrews 3
1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, [even] Jesus;
Derfor, hellige Brødre, delagtige i en himmelsk Kaldelse! ser hen til vor Bekendelses Udsending og Ypperstepræst, Jesus,
2 who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.
der var tro imod den, som beskikkede ham, ligesom også Moses var det i hele hans Hus.
3 For he hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he that built the house hath more honour than the house.
Thi han er kendt værdig til større Herlighed end Moses, i samme Mål som den, der har indrettet et Hus, har større Ære end Huset selv.
4 For every house is builded by some one; but he that built all things is God.
Thi hvert Hus indrettes af nogen; men den, som har indrettet alt, er Gud.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken;
Og Moses var vel tro i hele hans Hus, som en Tjener, til Vidnesbyrd om, hvad der skulde tales;
6 but Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast our boldness and the glorying of our hope firm unto the end.
men Kristus er det som en Søn over hans Hus; og hans Hus ere vi, såfremt vi fastholde Håbets Frimodighed og Ros urokket indtil Enden.
7 Wherefore, even as the Holy Ghost saith, Today if ye shall hear his voice,
Derfor, som den Helligånd siger: "I Dag, når I høre hans Røst,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, Like as in the day of the temptation in the wilderness,
da forhærder ikke eders Hjerter, som det skete i Forbitrelsen, på Fristelsens Dag i Ørkenen,
9 Wherewith your fathers tempted [me] by proving [me], And saw my works forty years.
hvor eders Fædre fristede mig ved at sætte mig på Prøve, og de så dog mine Gerninger i fyrretyve År.
10 Wherefore I was displeased with this generation, And said, They do alway err in their heart: But they did not know my ways;
Derfor harmedes jeg på denne Slægt og sagde: De fare altid vild i Hjertet; men de kendte ikke mine Veje,
11 As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
så jeg svor i min Vrede: Sandelig, de skulle ikke gå ind til min Hvile" -
12 Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God:
så ser til, Brødre! at der ikke nogen Sinde i nogen af eder skal findes et ondt, vantro Hjerte, så at han falder fra den levende Gud.
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:
Men formaner hverandre hver Dag, så længe det hedder "i Dag", for at ikke nogen af eder skal forhærdes ved Syndens Bedrag.
14 for we are become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end:
Thi vi ere blevne delagtige i Kristus, såfremt vi fastholde vor første Fortrøstning urokket indtil Enden.
15 while it is said, Today if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
Når der sigs: "I Dag, - når I høre hans Røst, da forhærder ikke eders Hjerter som i Forbitrelsen":
16 For who, when they heard, did provoke? nay, did not all they that came out of Egypt by Moses?
hvem vare da vel de, som hørte og dog voldte Forbitrelse? Mon ikke alle, som gik ud af Ægypten ved Moses?
17 And with whom was he displeased forty years? was it not with them that sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
Men på hvem harmedes han i fyrretyve År? Mon ikke på dem, som syndede, hvis døde Kroppe faldt i Ørkenen?
18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that were disobedient?
Og over for hvem tilsvor han, at de ikke skulde gå ind til hans Hvile, uden dem, som vare blevne genstridige?
19 And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
Og vi se, at de ikke kunde gå ind på Grund af Vantro.
