Jesus Our High Priest

Therefore, (A)holy brothers and sisters, partakers of a (B)heavenly calling, consider (C)the Apostle and (D)High Priest of our (E)confession: Jesus; [a]He was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as (F)Moses also was in all His house. (G)For He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by just so much as the builder of the house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. Now (H)Moses was faithful in all [b]God’s house as (I)a servant, (J)for a testimony of those things (K)which were to be spoken later; but Christ was faithful as (L)a Son over His house—(M)whose house we are, (N)if we hold firmly to our (O)confidence and the boast of our [c](P)hope.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, even Jesus; who was faithful to him that [a]appointed him, as also was Moses in all [b]his house. For he hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he that [c]built the house hath more honor than the house. For every house is [d]builded by some one; but he that [e]built all things is God. And Moses indeed was faithful in all [f]his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken; but Christ as a son, over [g]his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast our boldness and the glorying of our hope firm unto the end.
