| 1Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession. | 1Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; |
| 2He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God's household. | 2Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. |
| 3For Jesus is considered worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder has more honor than the house. | 3For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house. |
| 4Now every house is built by someone, but the one who built everything is God. | 4For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. |
| 5Moses was faithful as a servant in all God's household, as a testimony to what would be said in the future. | 5And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; |
| 6But Christ was faithful as a Son over his household. And we are that household if we hold on to our confidence and the hope in which we boast. | 6But 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 unto the end. |
| 7Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: Today, if you hear his voice, | 7Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, |
| 8do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness, | 8Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: |
| 9where your fathers tested me, tried me, and saw my works | 9When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. |
| 10for forty years. Therefore I was provoked to anger with that generation and said, "They always go astray in their hearts, and they have not known my ways." | 10Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. |
| 11So I swore in my anger, "They will not enter my rest." | 11So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) |
| 12Watch out, brothers and sisters, so that there won't be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. | 12Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. |
| 13But encourage each other daily, while it is still called today, so that none of you is hardened by sin's deception. | 13But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. |
| 14For we have become participants in Christ if we hold firmly until the end the reality that we had at the start. | 14For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; |
| 15As it is said: Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion. | 15While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. |
| 16For who heard and rebelled? Wasn't it all who came out of Egypt under Moses? | 16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. |
| 17With whom was God angry for forty years? Wasn't it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? | 17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? |
| 18And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if not to those who disobeyed? | 18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? |
| 19So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief. | 19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. |
