# Hebrews 3
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all Gods house.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses—as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.)
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. Now Moses was faithful in all Gods house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. but Christ is faithful over Gods house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice,
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, They always go astray in their heart; they have not known my ways.
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. As I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter my rest.’”
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
16. For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses?
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
17. And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
18. And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
19. So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
