Hebrews 3

New Century Version NCV

1 So all of you holy brothers and sisters, who were called by God, think about Jesus, who was sent to us and is the high priest of our faith.

2 Jesus was faithful to God as Moses was in God's family.

3 Jesus has more honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.

4 Every house is built by someone, but the builder of everything is God himself.

5 Moses was faithful in God's family as a servant, and he told what God would say in the future.

6 But Christ is faithful as a Son over God's house. And we are God's house if we keep on being very sure about our great hope.

7 So it is as the Holy Spirit says: "Today listen to what he says.

8 Do not be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God, when you tested God in the desert.

9 There your ancestors tried me and tested me and saw the things I did for forty years.

10 I was angry with them. I said, 'They are not loyal to me and have not understood my ways.'

11 I was angry and made a promise, 'They will never enter my rest.'"

12 So brothers and sisters, be careful that none of you has an evil, unbelieving heart that will turn you away from the living God.

13 But encourage each other every day while it is "today." Help each other so none of you will become hardened because sin has tricked you.

14 We all share in Christ if we keep till the end the sure faith we had in the beginning.

15 This is what the Scripture says: "Today listen to what he says. Do not be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God."

16 Who heard God's voice and was against him? It was all those people Moses led out of Egypt.

17 And with whom was God angry for forty years? He was angry with those who sinned, who died in the desert.

18 And to whom was God talking when he promised that they would never enter his rest? He was talking to those who did not obey him.

19 So we see they were not allowed to enter and have God's rest, because they did not believe.

New International Version NIV

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

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

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 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 So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice,

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

9 where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did.

10 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 declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter 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.

13 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 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.

15 As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.”

16 Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?

17 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 God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed?

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