+Hebrews.
+Chapter 3.
+For this reason, holy brothers, marked out to have a part in heaven, give thought to Jesus the representative and high priest of our faith;
+Who kept faith with God who gave him his place, even as Moses did in all his house.
+And it was right for this man to have more honour than Moses, even as the builder of a house has more honour than the house.
+For every house has a builder; but the builder of all things is God.
+And Moses certainly kept faith as a servant, in all his house, and as a witness of those things which were to be said later;
+But Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we keep our hearts fixed in the glad and certain hope till the end.
+And so, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you let his voice come to your ears,
+Be not hard of heart, as when you made me angry, on the day of testing in the waste land,
+When your fathers put me to the test, and saw my works for forty years.
+So that I was angry with this generation, and I said, Their hearts are in error at all times, and they have no knowledge of my ways;
+And being angry I made an oath, saying, They may not come into my rest.
+My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:
+But give comfort to one another every day as long as it is still Today; so that no one among you may be made hard by the deceit of sin:
+For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;
+As it is said, Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart, as when you made him angry.
+Who made him angry when his voice came to them? was it not all those who came out of Egypt with Moses?
+And with whom was he angry for forty years? was it not with those who did evil, who came to their deaths in the waste land?
+And to whom did he make an oath that they might not come into his rest? was it not to those who went against his orders?
+So we see that they were not able to go in because they had no belief.
