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