Hebrews 3 — NETB
3Verse 1Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, partners in a heavenly calling, take note of Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess,Verse 2who is faithful to the one who appointed him, as Moses was also in God’s house.Verse 3For he has come to deserve greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house deserves greater honor than the house itself!Verse 4For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.Verse 5Now Moses wasfaithful in all God’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that would be spoken.Verse 6But Christ is faithful as a son over God’s house. We are of his house, if in fact we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope we take pride in.
Verse 8“Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness.
Verse 9“There your fathers tested me and tried me, and they saw my works for forty years.
Verse 10“Therefore, I became provoked at that generation and said, ‘Their hearts are always wandering and they have not known my ways.’
Verse 11“As I swore in my anger, ‘They will never enter my rest!’”Verse 12See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has an evil, unbelieving heart that forsakes the living God.Verse 13But exhort one another each day, as long as it is called “Today,” that none of you may become hardened by sin’s deception.Verse 14For we have become partners with Christ, if in fact we hold our initial confidence firm until the end.Verse 15As it says, “O, that today you would listen as he speaks! Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”Verse 16For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership?Verse 17And against whom was God provoked for forty years? Was it not those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?Verse 18And to whom did he swear they would never enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient?Verse 19So we see that they could not enter because of unbelief.
