¹Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, [even] Jesus;

¹Seepärast, pühad vennad, taevase kutsumise osalised, mõtelgem meie usutunnistuse apostli ja ülempreestri Jeesuse peale,

²who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.

²kes - nagu ka Mooses tema kojas - on olnud ustav oma Ametisseseadjale.

³For he hath been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as he that built the house hath more honor than the house.

³Sest tema vääris suuremat kirkust kui Mooses, nii nagu valmistajal on suurem au kui kojal.

⁴For every house is builded by some one; but he that built all things is God.

⁴Igal kojal on ju oma valmistaja, aga kes kõik on valmistanud, see on Jumal.

⁵And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken;

⁵Mooses oli küll ustav kogu tema kojas otsekui sulane tunnistuseks kõigest, mida veel pidi räägitama,

⁶but Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast our boldness and the glorying of our hope firm unto the end.

⁶Kristus on aga tema koja üle kui ustav Poeg. Ja tema koda oleme meie, kui me vaid peame kinni julgusest ja lootusest, mille üle me kiitleme.

⁷Wherefore, even as the Holy Spirit saith, To-day if ye shall hear his voice,

⁷Seepärast on nõnda, nagu Püha Vaim ütleb: 'Täna, kui teie tema häält kuulete,

⁸Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, Like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,

⁸ärge tehke oma südant kõvaks nagu nurina ajal, kiusatusepäeval kõrbes,

⁹Where your fathers tried [me] by proving [me,] And saw my works forty years.

⁹kus teie esiisad kiusasid mind proovile pannes, kuigi nad olid minu tegusid näinud nelikümmend aastat.

¹⁰Wherefore I was displeased with this generation, And said, They do always err in their heart: But they did not know my ways;

¹⁰Seepärast tõusis mu viha selle sugupõlve vastu ja ma ütlesin: Nad aina eksivad oma südames, aga minu teid nad ei ole ära tundnud.

¹¹As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.

¹¹Nii ma vandusin oma vihas: Nad ei saa minu hingamisse!'

¹²Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God:

¹²Vaadake, vennad, kas ehk kellelgi teie seast ei ole kuri süda, mis uskmatuses ära taganeb elavast Jumalast!

¹³but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called To-day; lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin:

¹³Pigem julgustagem üksteist iga päev, niikaua kui veel öeldakse 'täna', et keegi teist ei paaduks patu pettuse läbi!

¹⁴for we are become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end:

¹⁴Me oleme ju saanud Kristuse osalisteks, kui me vaid lõpuni kinni peame sellest, mis meil alguses oli.

¹⁵while it is said, To-day if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

¹⁵Selles ütlemises: 'Täna, kui teie tema häält kuulete, ärge tehke oma südant kõvaks nagu nurina ajal' -

¹⁶For who, when they heard, did provoke? nay, did not all they that came out of Egypt by Moses?

¹⁶kes siis olid need kuuljad, kes nurisesid? Eks ju kõik need, kes olid Egiptusest välja läinud Moosese juhtimisel?

¹⁷And with whom was he displeased forty years? was it not with them that sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

¹⁷Aga kelle peale ta viha tõusis neljakümneks aastaks? Eks nende peale, kes patustasid, kelle kehad langesid kõrbes surnuna?

¹⁸And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that were disobedient?

¹⁸Aga kellele ta siis vandus, et nemad ei saa tema hingamisse, kui mitte neile, kes olid sõnakuulmatud?

¹⁹And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.

¹⁹Nii me näeme, et nad ei võinud sisse pääseda oma uskmatuse pärast.
