1 C hristian brothers, you have been chosen and set apart by God. So let us think about Jesus. He is the One God sent and He is the Religious Leader of our Christian faith.

Por tanto, hermanos santos, participantes del llamamiento celestial, considerad al apóstol y sumo sacerdote de nuestra profesión, Cristo Jesús;

2 J esus was faithful in God’s house just as Moses was faithful in all of God’s house.

el cual es fiel al que le constituyó, como también lo fue Moisés en toda la casa de Dios.

3 T he man who builds a house gets more honor than the house. That is why Jesus gets more honor than Moses.

Porque de tanto mayor gloria que Moisés es estimado digno éste, cuanto tiene mayor honra que la casa el que la hizo.

4 E very house is built by someone. And God is the One Who has built everything.

Porque toda casa es hecha por alguno; pero el que hizo todas las cosas es Dios.

5 M oses was a faithful servant owned by God in God’s house. He spoke of the things that would be told about later on.

Y Moisés a la verdad fue fiel en toda la casa de Dios, como siervo, para testimonio de lo que se iba a decir;

6 B ut Christ was faithful as a Son Who is Head of God’s house. We are of God’s house if we keep our trust in the Lord until the end. This is our hope.

pero Cristo como hijo sobre su casa, la cual casa somos nosotros, si retenemos firme hasta el fin la confianza y el gloriarnos en la esperanza. El reposo del pueblo de Dios

7 T he Holy Spirit says, “If you hear His voice today,

Por lo cual, como dice el Espíritu Santo: Si oyereis hoy su voz,

8 d o not let your hearts become hard as your early fathers did when they turned against Me. It was at that time in the desert when they put Me to the test.

No endurezcáis vuestros corazones, Como en la provocación, en el día de la tentación en el desierto,

9 Y our early fathers tempted Me and tried Me. They saw the work I did for forty years.

Donde me tentaron vuestros padres; me probaron, Y vieron mis obras cuarenta años.

10 F or this reason, I was angry with the people of this day. And I said to them, ‘They always think wrong thoughts. They have never understood what I have tried to do for them.’

A causa de lo cual me disgusté contra esa generación, Y dije: Siempre andan vagando en su corazón, Y no han conocido mis caminos.

11 I was angry with them and said to Myself, ‘They will never go into My rest.’”

Por tanto, juré en mi ira: No entrarán en mi reposo. m

12 C hristian brothers, be careful that not one of you has a heart so bad that it will not believe and will turn away from the living God.

Mirad, hermanos, que no haya en ninguno de vosotros corazón malo de incredulidad para apartarse del Dios vivo;

13 H elp each other. Speak day after day to each other while it is still today so your heart will not become hard by being fooled by sin.

antes exhortaos los unos a los otros cada día, entre tanto que se dice: Hoy; para que ninguno de vosotros se endurezca por el engaño del pecado.

14 F or we belong to Christ if we keep on trusting Him to the end just as we trusted Him at first.

Porque somos hechos participantes de Cristo, con tal que retengamos firme hasta el fin nuestra confianza del principio,

15 T he Holy Writings say, “If you hear His voice today, do not let your hearts become hard as your early fathers did when they turned against Me.”

entre tanto que se dice: Si oyereis hoy su voz, No endurezcáis vuestros corazones, como en la provocación. m

16 W ho heard God’s voice and turned against Him? Did not all those who were led out of the country of Egypt by Moses?

¿Quiénes fueron los que, habiendo oído, le provocaron? ¿No fueron todos los que salieron de Egipto por mano de Moisés?

17 W ho made God angry for forty years? Was it not those people who had sinned in the desert? Was it not those who died and were buried there?

¿Y con quiénes estuvo él disgustado cuarenta años? ¿No fue con los que pecaron, cuyos cuerpos cayeron en el desierto?

18 W ho did He say could never go into His rest? Was it not those who did not obey Him?

¿Y a quiénes juró que no entrarían en su reposo, sino a aquellos que desobedecieron?

19 S o we can see that they were not able to go into His rest because they did not put their trust in Him.

Y vemos que no pudieron entrar a causa de incredulidad.
