1For what reason, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation]; 2Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] [was faithful] in all his house. 3For this [man] was counted worthy of more glory than Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters], inasmuch as he who has built the house has more honour than the house. 4For every house is built by some [man]; but he that built all things [is] God-The Father. 5And Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] truly [was] faithful in all his house, as a slave, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; 6But Moshiach [Messiah] 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.

7For what reason (as the Holy Spirit [Ruach HaKodesh] says, To day if you^2f will hear his voice,

8Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9When your fathers tried or tested me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

10For what reason I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in [their] heart; and they have not known my ways.

11So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

12Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God-The Father. 13But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14For we are made partakers of Moshiach [Messiah], if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

15While it is said, To day if you^2f will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Mitzrayim (Egypt) [the black land, The Narrow Place] by Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters]. 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 swore he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? 19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
