Hebrews 3

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

1 Therefore, brothers and sisters who are partners in the heavenly calling, think about Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.

2 Jesus was faithful to the one who appointed him just like Moses was faithful in God's house.

3 But he deserves greater glory than Moses in the same way that the builder of the house deserves more honor than the house itself.

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

5 Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant in order to affirm the things that would be spoken later.

6 But Jesus was faithful over God's house as a Son. We are his house if we hold on to the confidence and the pride that our hope gives us.

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

8 don't have stubborn hearts as they did in the rebellion, on the day when they tested me in the desert.

9 That is where your ancestors challenged and tested me, though they had seen my work for forty years.

10 So I was angry with them. I said, "Their hearts always go off course, and they don't know my ways."

11 Because of my anger I swore: "They will never enter my rest!"

12 Watch out, brothers and sisters, so that none of you have an evil, unfaithful heart that abandons the living God.

13 Instead, encourage each other every day, as long as it's called "today," so that none of you become insensitive to God because of sin's deception.

14 We are partners with Christ, but only if we hold on to the confidence we had in the beginning until the end.

15 When it says, Today, if you hear his voice, don't have stubborn hearts as they did in the rebellion.

16 Who was it who rebelled when they heard his voice? Wasn't it all of those who were brought out of Egypt by Moses?

17 And with whom was God angry for forty years? Wasn't it with the ones who sinned, whose bodies fell in the desert?

18 And against whom did he swear that they would never enter his rest, if not against the ones who were disobedient?

19 We see that they couldn't enter because of their lack of faith.

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.
