Hebrews 3 King James Version 1611
From Textus Receptus
- 1 Wherfore holy brethrē, partakers of the heauenly calling, consider the Apostle and high Priest of our profession Christ Iesus,
- 2 Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithfull in all his house.
- 3 For this man was counted worthy of more glory then Moses, in as much as he who hath builded the house, hath more honour then the house.
- 4 For euery house is builded by some man, but hee that built all things is God.
- 5 And Moses verely was faithfull in all his house as a seruant, for a testimonie of those things which were to be spoken after.
- 6 But Christ as a Sonne ouer his owne house, whose house are wee, if we hold fast the confidence, and the reioycing of the hope firme vnto the end.
- 7 Wherfore as the holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will heare his voyce,
- 8 Harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation, in the day of temptation in the wildernesse:
- 9 When your fathers tempted me, prooued me, and saw my works fourty yeeres.
- 10 Wherefore I was grieued with that generation, and sayd, They doe alway erre in their hearts, and they haue not knowen my wayes.
- 11 So I sware in my wrath: they shall not enter into my rest.
- 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an euill heart of vnbeleefe, in departing from the liuing God.
- 13 But exhort one another dayly, while it is called To day, least any of you be hardned through the deceitfulnesse of sinne.
- 14 For wee are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast vnto the end.
- 15 Whilest it is sayd, To day if yee will heare his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the prouocation.
- 16 For some when they had heard, did prouoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
- 17 But with whom was he grieued fourty yeeres? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wildernesse?
- 18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that beleeued not?
- 19 So we see that they could not enter in, because of vnbeleefe.
