< Hebrews 3 >

1 Whence, holy brethren, partners, in a heavenly calling, attentively consider the Apostle and High—priest of our confession—Jesus
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heauenly vocation, consider the Apostle and high Priest of our profession Christ Iesus:
2 As one, faithful, to him who made him: as, Moses also, in [all] his house.
Who was faithfull to him that hath appointed him, euen as Moses was in al his house.
3 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;
For this man is counted worthy of more glory then Moses, inasmuch as he which hath builded the house, hath more honour then the house.
4 For, every house, is prepared by someone, —but, he that hath prepared all things, is, God.
For euery house is builded of some man, and he that hath built all things, is God.
5 Even Moses, indeed, was faithful in all his house, as an attendant, for a witness of the things which were to be spoken;
Now Moses verely was faithfull in all his house, as a seruant, for a witnesse of the thinges which should be spoken after.
6 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.
But Christ is as the Sonne, ouer his owne house, whose house we are, if we holde fast that confidence and that reioycing of that hope vnto the ende.
7 Wherefore, —according as saith the Holy Spirit—To-day, if, unto his voice ye would hearken, do not
Wherefore, as the holy Ghost sayth, To day if ye shall heare his voyce,
8 harden your hearts, —as in the embitterment, in the day of testing in the desert,
Harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation, according to the day of the tentation in the wildernes,
9 When your fathers tested by proving, and saw my works forty years.
Where your fathers tempted me, prooued me, and sawe my workes fourtie yeeres long.
10 Wherefore I was sore vexed with this generation, and said, Always err they in their heart; —howbeit, they, learned not my ways:
Wherefore I was grieued with that generation, and sayde, They erre euer in their heart, neither haue they knowen my wayes.
11 So I sware in mine anger—they shall not enter into my rest!—
Therefore I sware in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest.
12 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.
Take heede, brethren, least at any time there be in any of you an euill heart, and vnfaithfull, to depart away from the liuing God.
13 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.
But exhort one another dayly, while it is called to day, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulnes of sinne.
14 For, partners of the Christ, have we become, —if, at least, the beginning of the confidence, throughout, firm, we hold fast:
For we are made partakers of Christ, if we keepe sure vnto the ende that beginning, wherewith we are vpholden,
15 So long as it is said—To-day, if, unto his voice, ye would hearken, do not harden your hearts, —as in the embitterment.
So long as it is sayd, To day if ye heare his voyce, harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation.
16 For, who, though they heard, caused embitterment? Nay, indeed! did not all who come forth out of Egypt through Moses?
For some when they heard, prouoked him to anger: howbeit, not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But, with whom, was be sore vexed forty years? Was it not with them who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the desert?
But with whome was he displeased fourtie yeeres? Was hee not displeased with them that sinned, whose carkeises fell in the wildernes?
18 But, unto whom, sware he, that they should not enter into his rest, —save unto them who were obstinate?
And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but vnto them that obeyed not?
19 And we see, that they were not able to enter, because of unbelief.
So we see that they could not enter in, because of vnbeliefe.
