# Chapter 3
|
||
1 Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
|
||
2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house.
|
||
3 For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses—as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.
|
||
4 (For every house is built by someone, 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 is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.
|
||
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,
|
||
“Today, if 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 heart;
|
||
they have not known my ways.’
|
||
11 As I swore in my wrath,
|
||
‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
|
||
12 Take care, brothers, 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 have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
|
||
15 As it is said,
|
||
“Today, if you hear his voice,
|
||
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
|
||
16 For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses?
|
||
17 And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
|
||
18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
|
||
19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief. |
