Hebrews 3:1-6
Wycliffe Bible
3 Therefore [Wherefore], holy brethren, and partners of heavenly calling, behold ye the apostle and the bishop of our confession, Jesus,
2 which is true to him that made him, as also Moses in all the house of him.
3 But this bishop [Forsooth this bishop] is had worthy of more glory than Moses, by as much as he hath more honour of the house, that made the house.
4 For each house is made of some man; [forsooth] he that made all things of nought is God.
5 And [soothly] Moses was true in all his house, as a servant, into witnessing of those things that were to be said;
6 but Christ as a son in his house. Which house we be, if we hold firm trust and glory of hope into [unto] the end.

Hebrews 3:1-6
New Matthew Bible
He calls upon us to hear and honour the word of Christ, who is more worthy than Moses. The punishment of persons who stubbornly harden their hearts.
3 Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the celestial calling, consider the ambassador and high priest of our profession, Christ Jesus, 2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, even as Moses was in all his house. 3 And yet this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has prepared the house has more honour in the house.
4 Every house is built by some man. But he who ordained all things is God. 5 And Moses truly was faithful in all his house, as a servant, to bear witness of those things that were to be spoken afterward. 6 But Christ as a son has rule over the house – whose house we are, if so be that we hold fast the confidence and the assurance of that hope to the end.

Hebrews 3:1-6
Authorized (King James) Version
3 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; 2 who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. 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. 4 For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. 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; 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.
