| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Therefore, holy brothers, partners in a heavenly calling, keep your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God's household, |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3because he is worthy of greater glory than Moses in the same way that the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4After all, every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Moses was faithful in all God's household as a servant who was to testify to what would be said later, |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6but the Messiah was faithful as the Son in charge of God's household, and we are his household if we hold on to our courage and the hope in which we rejoice. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, if you hear his voice, |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8do not harden your hearts as they did when they provoked me during the time of testing in the wilderness. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9There your ancestors tested me, even though they had seen my actions |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10for 40 years. That is why I was indignant with that generation and said, 'They are always going astray in their hearts, and they have not known my ways.' |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11So in my anger I swore a solemn oath that they would never enter my rest." |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12See to it, my brothers, that no evil, unbelieving heart is found in any of you, as shown by your turning away from the living God. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Instead, continue to encourage one another every day, as long as it is called "Today," so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin, |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14because we are the Messiah's partners only if we hold on to our original confidence to the end. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15As it is said, "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as they did when they provoked me." |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Now who heard him and provoked him? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses? |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17And with whom was he angry for 40 years? Was it not with those who sinned and whose bodies fell dead in the wilderness? |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18And to whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest? It was to those who disobeyed him, was it not? |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19So we see that they were unable to enter because of their unbelief. |
