3:1  Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly
calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our
profession, Christ Jesus;
 3:2  Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses
[was faithful] in all his house.
 3:3  For this [man] was counted worthy of more glory than
Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more
honour than the house.
 3:4  For every house is builded by some [man]; but he that
built all things [is] God.
 3:5  And Moses verily [was] faithful in all his house, as a
servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be
spoken after;
 3:6  But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are
we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the
hope firm unto the end.
 3:7  Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will
hear his voice,
 3:8  Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day
of temptation in the wilderness:
 3:9  When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works
forty years.
 3:10  Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said,
They do alway err in [their] heart; and they have not known my
ways.
 3:11  So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my
rest.)
 3:12  Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil
heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
 3:13  But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day;
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
 3:14  For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the
beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
 3:15  While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice,
harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
 3:16  For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not
all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
 3:17  But with whom was he grieved forty years? [was it] not
with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the
wilderness?
 3:18  And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his
rest, but to them that believed not?
 3:19  So we see that they could not enter in because of
unbelief.
