KJ3 Literal Translation
Hebrews 3
Christ is more worthy than Moses.
1For which reason, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, fully consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus,
2“being faithful” to Him having made Him, as also “Moses” was “in all his house”. Num. 12:7
3For He was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as the one having prepared it has more honor than the house.
4For every house is built by someone; but the One who prepared all things is God.
5And “Moses” truly “was faithful in all his house” as a servant for a testimony of all the things being spoken; Num. 12:7
6but Christ as Son over His house, whose house we are, if truly we hold fast the boldness and rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.
7Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear His voice,
8do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation by rebelliousness, in the day of temptation in the wilderness,
9there where your fathers tested Me, examining Me, and saw My works forty years.
10Therefore, I was very angry with that generation and said, They always go astray in heart; and they did not know My ways;
11so I swore in My wrath, They shall not enter into My rest.” LXX-Psalm 94:7-11; MT-Psalm 95:7-11
12Watch, brothers, lest perhaps there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief to depart from the living God.
13But exhort yourselves each day, as long as it is being called today, that not any of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14For we have become partakers of Christ, if truly we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end;
15as in the saying, “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation by rebelliousness,” Psa. 95:7,8 MT
16For having heard, some provoked Him, but not all the ones coming out of Egypt through Moses.
17But with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with the ones sinning, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?
18And to whom did “He swear” “they would not enter into His rest,” except to the ones having disobeyed? LXX-Psa. 94:11; MT-Psa. 95:11
19And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
