Hebrews 3
Reading Hebrews chapter 3 in the Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible, public-domain text from 1899.
Verses 1–10
1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:
2 Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.
3 For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house hath greater honour than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things is God.
5 And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:
6 But Christ, as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.
7 Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: To-day if you shall hear his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the desert,
9 Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,
10 Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways.
