Hebreus 3

¹ Holy brothers, partakers of 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 was in His entire house.

³ He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses. This is because the builder of the house has more honor than the house.

⁴ Every house has a builder. God is the builder of all things.

⁵ Indeed Moses was faithful in His house, as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things to be spoken afterwards.

⁶ Christ was faithful as a Son over God’s house. We are His house if we hold on to our courage confidence and rejoice speak boldly about our hope until the end.

⁷ The Holy Spirit says: »Today if you will hear his voice,

⁸ »do not harden your hearts and be stubborn like those who tested me in the day of temptation in the wilderness.

⁹ »Your forefathers examined inspectedscrutinized me by proving testing me. And they saw my works for forty years.

¹⁰ »I was disgusted angry with this generation, and said: ‘They always go astray in their hearts, and they have not known my ways.’

¹¹ »So I swore in my anger: ‘They will not enter into my rest.’«

¹² Be careful, brothers and sisters, that none of you develop a wicked heart lacking faith and turning away departing from the living God.

¹³ Encourage yourselves each day, as long as it is called »Today,« that none of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

¹⁴ For we have become companions partners with Christ if indeed we hold the beginning of our firm trust to the end.

¹⁵ Scripture says: »Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts. Do not be stubborn like those who rebelled.«

¹⁶ Who were they who heard God and rebelled? All who came out of Egypt with Moses rebelled.

¹⁷ With whom was he disgusted for forty years? He was disgusted and angry with those who sinned and died in the desert.

¹⁸ Who did God swear would never enter his rest? He was talking about those who did not obey him.

¹⁹ We see that they could not enter in on account of a lack of faith unbeliefdisobedience.
