Hebrews 3
English Standard Version
Jesus Greater Than Moses
3 Therefore, holy brothers,[a] you who share in (A)a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, (B)the apostle and high priest of our confession, 2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, (C)just as Moses also was faithful in all God's[b] house. 3 For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses—as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. 4 (For every house is built by someone, but (D)the builder of all things is God.) 5 (E)Now Moses was faithful in all God's house (F)as a servant, (G)to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, 6 but Christ is faithful over God's house as (H)a son. And (I)we are his house, if indeed we (J)hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.[c]
A Rest for the People of God
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,
(K)“Today, if you hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
on the day of testing in the wilderness,
9 where your fathers put me to the test
and saw my works for (L)forty years.
10 Therefore I was provoked with that generation,
and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;
they have not known my ways.’
11 (M)As I swore in my wrath,
‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
12 Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from (N)the living God. 13 But (O)exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by (P)the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have come to share in Christ, (Q)if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. 15 As it is said,
(R)“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
16 For (S)who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not (T)all those who left Egypt led by Moses? 17 And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, (U)whose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did he swear that (V)they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19 So we see that (W)they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

Kristus är större än Mose
3 (A) Därför, ni heliga bröder som har fått del av en himmelsk kallelse, se på Jesus, den apostel[a] och överstepräst som vi bekänner oss till. 2 (B) Han var betrodd av[b] den som insatte honom, liksom Mose var betrodd i hela Guds hus.[c]
3 (C) Men Jesus är värd mer ära än Mose, liksom husbyggaren hedras mer än själva huset. 4 Varje hus är byggt av någon, men Gud är den som har byggt allt. 5 (D) Mose var betrodd i hela Guds hus, som en tjänare, för att vittna om det som sedan skulle förkunnas. 6 (E) Men Kristus är betrodd som Son att råda över Guds hus. Och hans hus är vi, när vi håller fast vid vår frimodighet och ära i hoppet.
Varning för förhärdelse
7 (F) Därför säger den helige Ande:[d]
I dag, om ni hör hans röst,
8 förhärda inte era hjärtan
som vid upproret,[e]
som på prövningens dag i öknen,
9 (G) där era fäder frestade mig
och prövade mig
fast de sett mina gärningar
i fyrtio år.
10 Därför var jag vred på det släktet,
och jag sade:
De är ständigt vilsna
i sina hjärtan,
de känner inte mina vägar.
11 (H) Så svor jag i min vrede:
De ska aldrig komma in
i min vila.
12 (I) Bröder, se till att ingen av er har ett ont och trolöst hjärta så att han avfaller från den levande Guden. 13 Uppmuntra varandra i stället varje dag, så länge det heter i dag, så att ingen av er förhärdas genom syndens makt att bedra.
14 (J) Vi är Kristi vänner[f] om vi stadigt håller fast vid vår första tillförsikt[g] ända till slutet. 15 Det heter: I dag, om ni hör hans röst, förhärda inte era hjärtan som vid upproret.[h]
16 Vilka var det då som hörde men ändå gjorde uppror? Var det inte alla de som Mose förde ut ur Egypten? 17 (K) Och vilka var han vred på i fyrtio år? Var det inte på dem som syndade och blev liggande som lik i öknen? 18 (L) Och vilka gällde hans ed att de aldrig skulle komma in i hans vila, om inte dem som vägrade lyda? 19 Vi ser alltså att det var på grund av otro som de inte kunde komma in.

Jesus Greater Than Moses
3 Therefore, holy brothers and sisters,(A) who share in the heavenly calling,(B) fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge(C) as our apostle and high priest.(D) 2 He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house.(E) 3 Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses,(F) just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. 4 For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.(G) 5 “Moses was faithful as a servant(H) in all God’s house,”[a](I) bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. 6 But Christ is faithful as the Son(J) over God’s house. And we are his house,(K) if indeed we hold firmly(L) to our confidence and the hope(M) in which we glory.
Warning Against Unbelief
7 So, as the Holy Spirit says:(N)
“Today, if you hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts(O)
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
9 where your ancestors tested and tried me,
though for forty years they saw what I did.(P)
10 That is why I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,(Q)
‘They shall never enter my rest.’ (R)”[b](S)
12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.(T) 13 But encourage one another daily,(U) as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.(V) 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold(W) our original conviction firmly to the very end.(X) 15 As has just been said:
16 Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?(Z) 17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness?(AA) 18 And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest(AB) if not to those who disobeyed?(AC) 19 So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.(AD)
