Hebrews 3

1 Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heauenly vocation, consider the Apostle and high Priest of our profession Christ Iesus:

Because of which, holy brothers, companions of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our affirmation, Jesus Christ,

2 Who was faithfull to him that hath appointed him, euen as Moses was in al his house.

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

3 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.

For this man was considered worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he who built it has more esteem than the house.

4 For euery house is builded of some man, and he that hath built all things, is God.

For every house is built by some man, but he who built all things is God.

5 Now Moses verely was faithfull in all his house, as a seruant, for a witnesse of the thinges which should be spoken after.

And Moses was indeed faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of the things that were going to be spoken,

6 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.

but Christ as a Son over his house, whose house we are, if only we keep in possession our confidence and pride of hope, firm until the end.

7 Wherefore, as the holy Ghost sayth, To day if ye shall heare his voyce,

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if ye hear his voice,

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation, according to the day of the tentation in the wildernes,

do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, according to the day of the trial in the wilderness,

9 Where your fathers tempted me, prooued me, and sawe my workes fourtie yeeres long.

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

10 Wherefore I was grieued with that generation, and sayde, They erre euer in their heart, neither haue they knowen my wayes.

Therefore I was angry with that generation, and said, They are always led astray in their heart, and they did not know my ways.

11 Therefore I sware in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest.

So I swore in my wrath, They will not enter into my rest.

12 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.

Watch, brothers, lest there will be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in withdrawing from the living God.

13 But exhort one another dayly, while it is called to day, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulnes of sinne.

But exhort each other during each day, while it is called Today, lest any of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we keepe sure vnto the ende that beginning, wherewith we are vpholden,

For we have become companions of the Christ, if only we keep in possession the primacy of the essence, steadfast until the end,

15 So long as it is sayd, To day if ye heare his voyce, harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation.

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

16 For some when they heard, prouoked him to anger: howbeit, not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

For some who heard rebelled, but not all those who came out of Egypt by Moses.

17 But with whome was he displeased fourtie yeeres? Was hee not displeased with them that sinned, whose carkeises fell in the wildernes?

But with whom was he angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?

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

And to whom did he swear were not going to enter into his rest, if not to those who were disobedient?

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

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