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

¹Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus;

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

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

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

³For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who built the house has more honor than the house.

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

⁴For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.

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

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

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.

⁶but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

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

⁷Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,

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

⁸don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, like as in the day of the trial in the wilderness,

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

⁹where your fathers tested me by proving me, and saw my works for forty years.

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

¹⁰Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways;’

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

¹¹as I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’” Psalm 95:7-11

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

¹²Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;

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

¹³but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”; lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

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

¹⁴For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end:

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

¹⁵while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.” Psalm 95:7-8

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

¹⁶For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, didn’t all those who came out of Egypt by Moses?

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

¹⁷With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

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

¹⁸To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

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

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