¹ Whence, holy brethren, partners, in a heavenly calling, attentively consider the Apostle and High - priest of our confession - Jesus² As one, faithful, to him who made him: as, Moses also, in allhis house.³ For, of more glory than Moses, hath, this one been counted worthy - by as much as more honour than, the house, hath, he that prepared it;⁴ For, every house, is prepared by someone, - but, he that hath prepared all things, is, God.⁵ Even Moses, indeed, was faithful in all his house, as an attendant, for a witness of the things which were to be spoken;⁶ But, Christ, as, a Son, over his house, - whose house are, we, - if, the freedom of speech and boast of the hope, throughout, firm,we hold fast.

⁷ Wherefore, - according as saith the Holy Spirit - To-day, if, unto his voice ye would hearken, do not⁸ harden your hearts, - as in the embitterment, in the day of testing in the desert,⁹ When your fathers tested by proving, and saw my works forty years.¹⁰ Wherefore I was sore vexed with this generation, and said, Always err they in their heart; - howbeit, they, learned not my ways:¹¹ So I sware in mine anger - they shall not enter into my rest! - ¹² Be taking heed, brethren, lest at any time, there shall be in any one of you, a wicked heart of unbelief, in revolting from a Living God.¹³ But be exhorting one another, on each successive day, - while the To-day is being named! lest any from among you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.¹⁴ For, partners of the Christ, have we become, - if, at least, the beginning of the confidence, throughout, firm, we hold fast:¹⁵ So long as it is said - To-day, if, unto his voice, ye would hearken, do not harden your hearts, - as in the embitterment.¹⁶ For, who, though they heard, caused embitterment? Nay, indeed! did not all who come forth out of Egypt through Moses?¹⁷ But, with whom, was be sore vexed forty years? Was it not with them who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the desert?¹⁸ But, unto whom, sware he, that they should not enter into his rest, - save unto them who were obstinate?¹⁹ And we see, that they were not able to enter, because of unbelief.
