| [1]Wherefore, my holy brethren, who have been called with the calling that [is] from heaven, contemplate this Apostle and High Priest of our confession, JESHU MESHIHA! |
[No book] |
| [2]Who was faithful to him who made him, as [was] Musha in all his house. |
[No book] |
| [3]For greater is the glory of this [One] by far than [the glory] of Musha, even as the honour of him who built the house is far greater than [that of] his building. |
[No book] |
| [4]For every house by some man is builded; but He who built all [things] is Aloha. |
[No book] |
| [5]And Musha, as a servant, was faithful in all his house, for the testimony of those [things] that were to be announced by him;ⓘ |
[No book] |
| [6]But the Meshiha as THE SON over his [own] house: and his house are we, if, unto the end, we shall hold fast our confidence,ⓘ and the triumphⓘ of his hope. |
[No book] |
| [7]Therefore the Spirit of Holiness hath said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, |
[No book] |
| [8]Harden not your hearts unto the angering of him, as [did] the embitterers,ⓘ and as the day of temptation in the desert, |
[No book] |
| [9]When your fathers tempted me, and proved [and] saw my works forty years. |
[No book] |
| [10]On which account I was wearied with that generation; and said, It is a people that doth err [in] their heart, and that hath not known my ways. |
[No book] |
| [11]So that I sware in my wrath, that they should not enter into my rest. |
[No book] |
| [12]Beware, therefore, my brethren, lest there be in any man among you an evil heart which believeth not, and ye depart from Aloha the living. |
[No book] |
| [13]But examine yourselves all the days, until the day which is called THAT DAY,ⓘ lest any one of you be hardened by the deceptiveness of sin. |
[No book] |
| [14]FOR we are made participators withⓘ the Meshiha, if, from the beginning and unto the end, in this very standing we steadfastly persist. |
[No book] |
| [15]As that it is said, To-day, if ye will hear his voice,ⓘ harden not your hearts to provoke him. |
[No book] |
| [16]For who are they who heard and provoked him? Not all they who came out of Metsreen by the hand of Musha. |
[No book] |
| [17]And with whom was he wearied forty years, but with them who sinned, and whose bones fell in the desert? |
[No book] |
| [18]And of whom did he swear that they should not enter into his rest, but of them who would not be persuaded? |
[No book] |
| [19]And we see that they were not able to enter in, because they did not believe. |
