Hebrews 3:1-6

The Message Bible MSG

New International Version NIV

1 So, my dear Christian friends, companions in following this call to the heights, take a good hard look at Jesus. He's the centerpiece of everything we believe,

1 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 faithful in everything God gave him to do. Moses was also faithful,

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

3 but Jesus gets far more honor. A builder is more valuable than a building any day.

3 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 Every house has a builder, but the Builder behind them all is God.

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

5 Moses did a good job in God's house, but it was all servant work, getting things ready for what was to come.

5 “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future.

6 Christ as Son is in charge of the house.

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 glory.
