< Hebrews 3 >

1 Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the emissary and cohen hagadol of our confession, Yeshua;
2 Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in his house.
3 For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath built the house hath more honour than the house.
For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, just as he who built the house has more honor than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man; but he that built all things is God.
For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5 And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later;
Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
6 But 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 to the end.
but Messiah is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope.
7 Therefore ( as the Holy Spirit saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Therefore, even as the Ruach ha-Kodesh says, "Today if you will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
where your fathers tested me and challenged me, and saw my works for forty years.
10 Therefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
Therefore I was displeased with this generation, and said, 'They always err in their heart, but they did not know my ways;'
11 So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'"
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
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.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end;
For we have become partakers of Messiah, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end:
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: yet not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, did not all those who came out of Egypt by Moses?
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
With whom was he displeased forty years? Was not it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
To whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
