1 Because of which, holy brothers, companions of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our affirmation, Jesus Christ,
2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.
3 For this man was considered worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he who built it has more esteem than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man, but he who built all things is God.
5 And Moses was indeed faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of the things that were going to be spoken,
6 but Christ as a Son over his house, whose house we are, if only we keep in possession our confidence and pride of hope, firm until the end.
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if ye hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, according to the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9 where your fathers challenged me, tested me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Therefore I was angry with that generation, and said, They are always led astray in their heart, and they did not know my ways.
11 So I swore in my wrath, They will not enter into my rest.
12 Watch, brothers, lest there will be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in withdrawing from the living God.
13 But exhort each other during each day, while it is called Today, lest any of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we have become companions of the Christ, if only we keep in possession the primacy of the essence, steadfast until the end,
15 while it is said, Today if ye will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.
16 For some who heard rebelled, but not all those who came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom did he swear were not going to enter into his rest, if not to those who were disobedient?
19 And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
1 Wherfore holy brethren partakers of the celestiall callinge cosyder the embasseatour and hye prest of oure profession Christ Iesus
2 which was faythfull to him that made him even as was Moses in all his housse.
3 And this man was counted worthy of more glory then Moses: In as moche as he which hath prepared the housse hath most honoure in the housse.
4 Every housse is prepared of some man. But he that ordeyned all thinges is god.
5 And Moses verely was faythfull in all his housse as a minister to beare witnes of tho thinges which shuld be spoken afterwarde.
6 But Christ as a sonne hath rule over the housse whose housse are we so that we hold fast the confydence and the reioysynge of that hope vnto the ende.
7 Wherfore as the holy goost sayth: to daye if ye shall heare his voyce
8 harden not youre hertes after the rebellyon in the daye of temptacion in the wildernes
9 where youre fathers tempted me proved me and sawe my workes xl. yeare longe.
10 Wherfore I was greved wt ye generacio and sayde. They erre ever in their hertes: they verely have not knowe my wayes
11 so that I sware in my wrathe that they shuld not enter into my rest.
12 Take hede brethren that therbe in none of you an evyll herte in vnbeleve that he shuld departe from ye lyvynge god:
13 but exhorte one another dayly whill is it called to daye lest eny of you wexe harde herted thorow ye deceytfullnesse of sinne
14 We are partetakers of Christ yf we kepe sure vnto the ende the fyrst substance
15 so longe as it is sayd: to daye yf ye heare his voyce harde not youre hertes as when ye rebelled.
16 For some whe they hearde rebelled: howbe it not all yt ca out of Egypt vnder Moses.
17 But with who was he despleased .xl. yeares? Was he not displeased with them that synned: whose carkases were overthorwen in the desert?
18 To whom sware he that they shuld not enter into his rest: but vnto them that beleved not?
19 And we se that they coulde not enter in because of vnbeleve.
