Hebrews 3

¹ Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.

² He was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in God's house.

³ Yet Jesus has been counted worthy of as much more glory than Moses as the builder of a house has more honor than the house.

⁴ (For every house is built by some one, but the builder of all things is God.)

⁵ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,

⁶ but Christ was faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house if we hold fast our confidence and pride in our hope.

⁷ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, when you hear his voice,

⁸ do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,

⁹ where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.

¹⁰ Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, 'They always go astray in their hearts; they have not known my ways.'

¹¹ As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall never enter my rest.'"

¹² Take care, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.

¹³ But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

¹⁴ For we share in Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end,

¹⁵ while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

¹⁶ Who were they that heard and yet were rebellious? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

¹⁷ And with whom was he provoked forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

¹⁸ And to whom did he swear that they should never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

¹⁹ So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
