| 1 | Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus; |
| 2 | who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house. |
| 3 | For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who built the house has more honor than the house. |
| 4 | For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God. |
| 5 | 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 is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end. |
| 7 | Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice, |
| 8 | don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness, |
| 9 | where your fathers tested me by proving me, and saw my works for forty years. |
| 10 | Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, 'They always err in their heart, but they didn't know my ways;' |
| 11 | as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.'" |
| 12 | 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 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 have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end: |
| 15 | while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion." |
| 16 | For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, didn't all those who came out of Egypt by Moses? |
| 17 | With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn't it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? |
| 18 | To whom did he swear that they wouldn't enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient? |
| 19 | We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief. |
