1 Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.1 Therefore, holy brothers, sharers in the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus.
2 He was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in God's house.2 He is faithful to the One who made him, just as Moses also was, with his entire 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.3 For this Jesus was considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, so much so that the house which he has built holds a greater honor than the former one.
4 (For every house is built by some one, but the builder of all things is God.)4 For every house is built by someone, but God is the One who has created all things.
5 Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,5 And certainly Moses was faithful, with his entire house, like any servant, as a testimony to those things that would soon be said.
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.6 Yet truly, Christ is like a Son in his own house. We are that house, if we firmly retain the faithfulness and the glory of hope, even unto the end.
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, when you hear his voice,7 Because of this, it is just as the Holy Spirit says: “If today you hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,8 harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, the very day of temptation, in the desert,
9 where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.9 where your fathers tested me, even though they had seen and examined 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.'10 For this reason, I was enraged against this generation, and I said: They always wander astray in heart. For they have not known my ways.
11 As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall never enter my rest.'"11 So it is as I swore in my wrath: They shall not enter into 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.12 Be cautious, brothers, lest perhaps there may be, in any of you, an evil heart of unbelief, turning aside 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.13 Instead, exhort one another every day, while it is still called ‘today,’ so that none of you may become hardened through the falseness of sin.
14 For we share in Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end,14 For we have been made participants in Christ. This is only so, if we firmly retain the beginning of his substance, even unto the end.
15 while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."15 For it has been said: “If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts, in the same manner as in the former provocation.”
16 Who were they that heard and yet were rebellious? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses?16 For some of those listening did provoke him. But not all of these had set forth from Egypt through Moses.
17 And with whom was he provoked forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?17 So against whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not those who had sinned, whose dead bodies lay prostrate in the desert?
18 And to whom did he swear that they should never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?18 But to whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, except to those who were incredulous?
19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.19 And so, we perceive that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
