| 1 | Therefore, holy brothers, sharers in the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus. | Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, | Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. | |
| 2 | He is faithful to the One who made him, just as Moses also was, with his entire house. | who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God’s house. | He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. | |
| 3 | For this Jesus was considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, so much so that the house which he has built holds a greater honor than the former one. | 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. | Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. | |
| 4 | For every house is built by someone, but God is the One who has created all things. | (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.) | For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. | |
| 5 | And certainly Moses was faithful, with his entire house, like any servant, as a testimony to those things that would soon be said. | Now Moses was faithful in all God’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, | “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. | |
| 6 | Yet truly, Christ is like a Son in his own house. We are that house, if we firmly retain the faithfulness and the glory of hope, even unto the end. | 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. | But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory. | |
| 7 | Because of this, it is just as the Holy Spirit says: “If today you hear his voice, | Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice, | So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, | |
| 8 | harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, the very day of temptation, in the desert, | do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness, | do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, | |
| 9 | where your fathers tested me, even though they had seen and examined my works for forty years. | where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years. | where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did. | |
| 10 | For this reason, I was enraged against this generation, and I said: They always wander astray in heart. For they have not known my ways. | Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart; they have not known my ways.’ | That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’ | |
| 11 | So it is as I swore in my wrath: They shall not enter into my rest!” | As I swore in my wrath, ‘They shall not enter my rest.’” | So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’” | |
| 12 | Be cautious, brothers, lest perhaps there may be, in any of you, an evil heart of unbelief, turning aside from the living God. | Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. | See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. | |
| 13 | Instead, exhort one another every day, while it is still called ‘today,’ so that none of you may become hardened through the falseness of sin. | 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. | But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. | |
| 14 | For we have been made participants in Christ. This is only so, if we firmly retain the beginning of his substance, even unto the end. | For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. | We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end. | |
| 15 | For it has been said: “If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts, in the same manner as in the former provocation.” | As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” | As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.” | |
| 16 | For some of those listening did provoke him. But not all of these had set forth from Egypt through Moses. | For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? | Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt? | |
| 17 | So against whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not those who had sinned, whose dead bodies lay prostrate in the desert? | And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? | And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness? | |
| 18 | But to whom did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, except to those who were incredulous? | And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? | And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed? | |
| 19 | And so, we perceive that they were not able to enter because of unbelief. | So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief. | So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief. | |
