1 Therfore holy brethren, partakers of the celestiall callyng, consider the apostle and hye priest of our profession Christe Iesus, 2 Beyng faythfull to hym that appoynted hym, as also was Moyses in all his house. 3 For this man is counted worthy of more glorie then Moyses, inasmuch as he which hath buylded the house, hath more honour then the house. 4 For euery house is buylded of some man: But he that buylded all thynges, is God. 5 And Moyses veryly was faythfull in al his house, as a minister, for a witnesse of those thynges whiche were to be spoken after: 6 But Christe as a sonne hath rule ouer his owne house, whose house are we, yf we holde fast the confidence and the reioycyng of that hope vnto the ende. 7 Wherfore, as the holy ghost saith: Today yf ye wyll heare his voyce, 8 Harden not your heartes, as in the prouokyng, in the day of the temptation in the wyldernesse, 9 Where your fathers tempted me, proued me, and sawe my workes 40 yeres. 10 Wherfore I was greeued with that generation, and sayde: they do alway erre in heart, they veryly haue not knowen my wayes. 11 So that I sware in my wrath, yf they shall enter into my rest.
