1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the apostle and chief priest of our profession, Christ 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 being stedfast to Him who did appoint him, as also Moses in all his 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 of more glory than Moses hath this one been counted worthy, inasmuch as more honour than the house hath he who doth build it, 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 builded by some one, and He who the all things did build is God, (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 Moses indeed was stedfast in all his house, as an attendant, for a testimony of those things that were to be spoken, 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 and Christ, as a Son over his house, whose house are we, if the boldness and the rejoicing of the hope unto the end we hold fast. 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 Wherefore, (as the Holy Spirit saith, 'To-day, if His voice ye may hear -- 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 ye may not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of the temptation in the wilderness, 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 in which tempt Me did your fathers, they did prove Me, and saw My works 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 wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, Always do they go astray in heart, and these 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 I sware in My anger, If they shall 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 See, brethren, lest there shall be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in the falling away 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 but exhort ye one another every day, while the To-day is called, that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of the 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 partakers we have become of the Christ, if the beginning of the confidence unto the end we may hold fast, 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 in its being said, 'To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts, as in the 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 certain having heard did provoke, but not all who did come out of 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 but with whom was He grieved forty years? was it not with those who did sin, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness? 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 and to whom did He swear that they shall not enter into His rest, except to those who did not believe? -- 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 we see that they were not able to enter in 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.
