Hebrews 3
Christian Standard Bible
Our Apostle and High Priest
3 Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.(A) 2 He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God’s household. 3 For Jesus is considered worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder has more honor than the house. 4 Now every house is built by someone, but the one who built everything is God.(B) 5 Moses was faithful as a servant(C) in all God’s household, as a testimony to what would be said in the future. 6 But Christ was faithful as a Son over his household. And we are that household if we hold on to our confidence and the hope in which we boast.[a](D)
Warning against Unbelief
7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:
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 ancestors tested me, tried me,
and saw my works 10 for forty years.
Therefore I was provoked to anger with that generation
and said, “They always go astray in their hearts,
and they have not known my ways.”
11 So I swore in my anger,
“They will not enter my rest.”[b](E)
12 Watch out, brothers and sisters, so that there won’t be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart that turns away(F) from the living God. 13 But encourage each other daily,(G) while it is still called today, so that none of you is hardened(H) by sin’s deception.(I) 14 For we have become participants in Christ if we hold firmly until the end the reality[c] that we had at the start.(J) 15 As it is said:
16 For who heard and rebelled? Wasn’t it all who came out of Egypt under Moses?(L) 17 With whom was God angry for forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?(M) 18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if not to those who disobeyed? 19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
Ebrei 3
La Nuova Diodati
3 Perciò, fratelli santi, che siete partecipi della celeste vocazione, considerate l'apostolo e il sommo sacerdote della nostra confessione di fede, Gesú Cristo,
2 che è fedele a colui che lo ha costituito, come lo fu anche Mosé in tutta la sua casa.
3 Infatti Gesú è stato ritenuto degno di una gloria tanto piú grande di quella di Mosé, quanto maggior gloria ha colui che ha fabbricato una casa della casa stessa.
4 Ora ogni casa è costruita da qualcuno, ma colui che ha fatto tutte le cose è Dio
5 E Mosé fu veramente fedele nella casa di Dio come servo, per testimoniare delle cose che dovevano essere dette,
6 ma Cristo, come Figlio, lo è sopra la propria casa e la sua casa siamo noi, se riteniamo ferma fino alla fine la franchezza e il vanto della speranza.
7 Perciò, come dice lo Spirito Santo: «Oggi, se udite la sua voce,
8 non indurite i vostri cuori come nella provocazione, nel giorno della tentazione nel deserto,
9 dove i vostri padri mi tentarono mettendomi alla prova, pur avendo visto per quarant'anni le mie opere.
10 Perciò mi sdegnai con quella generazione e dissi: Errano sempre col cuore e non hanno conosciuto le mie vie;
11 cosí giurai nella mia ira: Non entreranno nel mio riposo».
12 State attenti, fratelli, che talora non vi sia in alcuno di voi un malvagio cuore incredulo, che si allontani dal Dio vivente,
13 ma esortatevi a vicenda ogni giorno, finché si dice: Oggi perché nessuno di voi sia indurito per l'inganno del peccato.
14 Noi infatti siamo divenuti partecipi di Cristo, a condizione che riteniamo ferma fino alla fine la fiducia che avevamo al principio,
15 mentre ci è detto: «Oggi, se udite la sua voce, non indurite i vostri cuori come nella provocazione».
16 Chi furono infatti quelli che, avendola udita, lo provocarono? Non furono tutti quelli che erano usciti dall'Egitto per mezzo di Mosé?
17 Ora chi furono coloro coi quali si sdegnò per quarant'anni? Non furono coloro che peccarono, i cui cadaveri caddero nel deserto?
18 E a chi giurò che non sarebbero entrati nel suo riposo, se non a quelli che furono disubbidienti?
19 Or noi vediamo che non vi poterono entrare per l'incredulità.
Hebrews 3
New International Version
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)
