3:1  Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
3:2  Who was faithful to Him who has appointed Him (just as Moses was) in all His house.
3:3  For this Man is counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as the One who has built the house has more honor than the house.
3:4  For every house is built by someone. But the One Who has built all things is God.
3:5  Now Moses was truly faithful in all His house as a servant, for a witness of the things yet to be spoken.
3:6  But, Christ is as the Son over His own house, Whose house we are if we hold onto the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope to the end.
3:7  Therefore, as the Holy Ghost says, “Today, if you shall hear His voice,
3:8  “do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion on the day of temptation in the wilderness,
3:9  “where your fathers tempted Me, proved Me, and saw My works for forty years.
3:10  “Therefore, I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, nor have they known My ways.’
3:11  “Therefore, I swear in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter into My rest.’”
3:12  Pay attention, brothers, lest at any time there be in any of you an evil and unfaithful heart, departing from the living God.
3:13  But exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today”, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
3:14  For we have been made partakers of Christ, if we keep sure to the end that beginning which upholds us,
3:15  so long as it is said, “Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
3:16  For some, when they heard, provoked Him to anger (though not all who came out of Egypt with Moses).
3:17  But with whom was He displeased for forty years? Was He not displeased with those who sinned; whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?
3:18  And to whom did He swear that they would not enter into His rest, but to those who disobeyed?
3:19  So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
