1 Therefore, holy brothers and sisters who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest whom we confess.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

2 He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God's house.

Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.

3 For Jesus has been found worthy of greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.

For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.

4 For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.

For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.

5 Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to what would be spoken later.

And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;

6 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 boast.

But Christ 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.

7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you hear his voice,

Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness,

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

9 where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw my works.

When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

10 That is why I was angry with that generation, and I said, 'Their hearts are always wandering, and they have not known my ways.'

Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

11 So I swore in my anger, 'They shall not enter my rest.'

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

12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.

Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.

13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called "Today," so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if indeed we hold firmly to the beginning of our confidence steadfast until the end.

For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

15 As it is said: 'Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.'

While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

16 For who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those who came out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

18 And to whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest, if not to those who disobeyed?

And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?

19 So we see that they were not able to enter because of their unbelief.

So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
