Hebrews - Chapter 3 | American Standard Version

  • 1. Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, {cf15i even} Jesus;
  • 2. who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.
  • 3. For he hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he that built the house hath more honor than the house.
  • 4. For every house is builded by some one; but he that built all things is God.
  • 5. And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken;
  • 6. but Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast our boldness and the glorying of our hope firm unto the end.
  • 7. Wherefore, even as the Holy Spirit saith, To-day if ye shall hear his voice,
  • 8. Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, Like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
  • 9. Where your fathers tried {cf15i me} by proving {cf15i me,} And saw my works forty years.
  • 10. Wherefore I was displeased with this generation, And said, They do always err in their heart: But they did not know my ways;
  • 11. As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
  • 12. Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God:
  • 13. but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called To-day; lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin:
  • 14. for we are become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end:
  • 15. while it is said, To-day if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
  • 16. For who, when they heard, did provoke? nay, did not all they that came out of Egypt by Moses?
  • 17. And with whom was he displeased forty years? was it not with them that sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
  • 18. And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that were disobedient?
  • 19. And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
