Hebrews 3

1Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of [the] heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus,

1Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

2who is faithful to him that has constituted him, as Moses also in all his house.

2Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.

3For he has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by how much he that has built it has more honour than the house.

3For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.

4For every house is built by some one; but he who has built all things [is]God.

4For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.

5And Moses indeed [was] faithful in all his house, as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things to be spoken after;

5And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;

6but Christ, as Son over his house, whose house are we, if indeed we hold fast the boldness and the boast of hope firm to the end.

6But 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.

7Wherefore, even as says the Holy Spirit, To-day if ye will hear his voice,

7Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

8harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness;

8Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9where your fathers tempted [me], by proving [me], and saw my works forty years.

9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

10Wherefore I was wroth with this generation, and said, They always err in heart; and they have not known my ways;

10Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

11so I swore in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest.

11So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

12See, brethren, lest there be in any one of you a wicked heart of unbelief, in turning away from [the] livingGod.

12Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

13But encourage yourselves each day, as long as it is called To-day, that none of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

13But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14For we are become companions of the Christ if indeed we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end;

14For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

15in that it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation;

15While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

16(for who was it, who, having heard, provoked? but [was it] not all who came out of Egypt by Moses?

16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17And with whom was he wroth forty years? [Was it] not with those who had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to those who had not hearkened to the word?

18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

19And we see that they could not enter in on account of unbelief;)

19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
