nsb - Hebrews:3

nsb@Hebrews:3:1 @ Holy brothers, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus.

nsb@Hebrews:3:2 @ He was faithful to Him who appointed him, just as Moses was in His entire house.

nsb@Hebrews:3:3 @ He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses. This is because the builder of the house has more honor than the house.

nsb@Hebrews:3:4 @ Every house has a builder. God is the builder of all things.

nsb@Hebrews:3:5 @ Indeed Moses was faithful in His house, as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things to be spoken afterwards.

nsb@Hebrews:3:6 @ Christ was faithful as a Son over Gods house. We are His house if we hold on to our courage and rejoice about our hope until the end.

nsb@Hebrews:3:7 @ The Holy Spirit says: »Today if you will hear his voice,

nsb@Hebrews:3:8 @ »do not harden your hearts and be stubborn like those who tested me in the day of temptation in the wilderness.

nsb@Hebrews:3:9 @ »Your forefathers examined me by proving me. And they saw my works for forty years.

nsb@Hebrews:3:10 @ »I was disgusted with this generation, and said: They always go astray in their hearts, and they have not known my ways.

nsb@Hebrews:3:11 @ »So I swore in my anger: They will not enter into my rest.«

nsb@Hebrews:3:12 @ Be careful, brothers and sisters, that none of you develop a wicked heart lacking faith and turning away from the living God.

nsb@Hebrews:3:13 @ Encourage yourselves each day, as long as it is called »Today,« that none of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

nsb@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we have become companions with Christ if indeed we hold the beginning of our firm trust to the end.

nsb@Hebrews:3:15 @ Scripture says: »Today if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts. Do not be stubborn like those who rebelled.«

nsb@Hebrews:3:16 @ Who were they who heard God and rebelled? All who came out of Egypt with Moses rebelled.

nsb@Hebrews:3:17 @ With whom was he disgusted for forty years? He was disgusted and angry with those who sinned and died in the desert.

nsb@Hebrews:3:18 @ Who did God swear would never enter his rest? He was talking about those who did not obey him.

nsb@Hebrews:3:19 @ We see that they could not enter in on account of a lack of faith.
