1
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus,
2
who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was faithful in all His house.
3
For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house.
4
For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.
5
And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward,
6
but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.
7
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will hear His voice,
8
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In the day of trial in the wilderness,
9
Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me, And saw My works forty years.
10
Therefore I was angry with that generation, And said, 'They always go astray in their heart, And they have not known My ways.'
11
So I swore in My wrath, 'They shall not enter My rest.' "
12
Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God;
13
but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
