The Epistle to the Hebrews

Berean Study Bible :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 3 -

1
Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, set your focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess.
2
He was faithful to the One who appointed Him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house.(a)
3
For Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.
4
And every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.
5
Now Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,(b) testifying to what would be spoken later.
6
But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are His house, if we hold firmly (c) to our confidence and the hope of which we boast.

Do Not Harden Your Hearts

(Psalm 95:1–11)
7
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:Today, if you hear His voice,
8
do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness,
9
where your fathers tested and tried Me, and for forty years saw My works.
10
Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said,Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’
11
So I swore on oath in My anger,They shall never enter My rest.’”(d)

The Peril of Unbelief

12
See to it, brothers, that none of you has a wicked heart of unbelief that turns away from the living God.
13
But exhort 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 we hold firmly to the end the assurance we had at first.
15
As it has been said:Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.”(e)
16
For who were the ones who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?
17
And with whom was God angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18
And to whom did He swear that they would never enter His rest? Was it not to those who disobeyed?
19
So we see that it was because of their unbelief that they were unable to enter.

1
Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,
2
who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.
3
For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honor than the house.
4
For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5
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 (a) is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

Do Not Harden Your Hearts

(Psalm 95:1–11)
7
Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says,Today if you will hear his voice,
8
don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9
where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.
10
Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’
11
As I swore in my wrath,They will not enter into my rest.’”(b)

The Peril of Unbelief

12
Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might 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 calledtoday”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14
For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,
15
while it is said,Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”(c)
16
For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?
17
With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18
To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19
We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.
