Hebrews 3

DBY

NCV

1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of [the] heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus,
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 who is faithful to him that has constituted him, as Moses also in all his house.
2 Jesus was faithful to God as Moses was in God's family.
3 For *he* has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by how much he that has built it has more honour than the house.
3 Jesus has more honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.
4 For every house is built by some one; but he who has built all things [is] God.
4 Every house is built by someone, but the builder of everything is God himself.
5 And Moses indeed [was] faithful in all his house, as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things to be spoken after;
5 Moses was faithful in God's family as a servant, and he told what God would say in the future.
6 but Christ, as Son over his house, whose house are *we*, if indeed we hold fast the boldness and the boast of hope firm to the end.
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 Wherefore, even as says the Holy Spirit, To-day if ye will hear his voice,
7 So it is as the Holy Spirit says: "Today listen to what he says.
8 harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness;
8 Do not be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God, when you tested God in the desert.
9 where your fathers tempted [me], by proving [me], and saw my works forty years.
9 There your ancestors tried me and tested me and saw the things I did for forty years.
10 Wherefore I was wroth with this generation, and said, They always err in heart; and *they* have not known my ways;
10 I was angry with them. I said, 'They are not loyal to me and have not understood my ways.'
11 so I swore in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest.
11 I was angry and made a promise, 'They will never enter my rest.'"
12 See, brethren, lest there be in any one of you a wicked heart of unbelief, in turning away from [the] living God.
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 yourselves each day, as long as it is called To-day, that none of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
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 For we are become companions of the Christ if indeed we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end;
14 We all share in Christ if we keep till the end the sure faith we had in the beginning.
15 in that it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation;
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 (for who was it, who, having heard, provoked? but [was it] not all who came out of Egypt by Moses?
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 he wroth forty years? [Was it] not with those who had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
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 sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to those who had not hearkened to the word?
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 And we see that they could not enter in on account of unbelief;)
19 So we see they were not allowed to enter and have God's rest, because they did not believe.
