Hebrews 3
NASB
Heb 3:1
&
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession;
Heb 3:2
&
He was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was in all His house.
Heb 3:3
&
For He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by just so much as the builder of the house has more honor than the house.
Heb 3:4
&
For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.
Heb 3:5
&
Now Moses was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later;
Heb 3:6
&
but Christ {was faithful} as a Son over His house--whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end.
Heb 3:7
&
Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says, "TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE,
Heb 3:8
&
DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME, AS IN THE DAY OF TRIAL IN THE WILDERNESS,
Heb 3:9
&
WHERE YOUR FATHERS TRIED {Me} BY TESTING {Me,} AND SAW MY WORKS FOR FORTY YEARS.
Heb 3:10
&
"THEREFORE I WAS ANGRY WITH THIS GENERATION, AND SAID, `THEY ALWAYS GO ASTRAY IN THEIR HEART, AND THEY DID NOT KNOW MY WAYS';
Heb 3:11
&
AS I SWORE IN MY WRATH, `THEY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST."'
Heb 3:12
&
Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God.
Heb 3:13
&
But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is {still} called "Today," so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Heb 3:14
&
For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end,
Heb 3:15
&
while it is said, "TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS, AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME."
Heb 3:16
&
For who provoked {Him} when they had heard? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt {led} by Moses?
Heb 3:17
&
And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Heb 3:18
&
And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who were disobedient?
Heb 3:19
&
{So} we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief.
