unde fratres sancti vocationis caelestis participes considerate apostolum et pontificem confessionis nostrae Iesum
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:
|
| 2 |
qui fidelis est ei qui fecit illum sicut et Moses in omni domo illius
Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.
|
| 3 |
amplioris enim gloriae iste prae Mose dignus habitus est quanto ampliorem honorem habet domus qui fabricavit illam
For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house hath greater honour than the house.
|
| 4 |
omnis namque domus fabricatur ab aliquo qui autem omnia creavit Deus
For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things is God.
|
| 5 |
et Moses quidem fidelis erat in tota domo eius tamquam famulus in testimonium eorum quae dicenda erant
And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:
|
| 6 |
Christus vero tamquam filius in domo sua quae domus sumus nos si fiduciam et gloriam spei usque ad finem firmam retineamus
But Christ, as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.
|
| 7 |
quapropter sicut dicit Spiritus Sanctus hodie si vocem eius audieritis
Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: To-day if you shall hear his voice,
|
| 8 |
nolite obdurare corda vestra sicut in exacerbatione secundum diem temptationis in deserto
Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the desert,
|
| 9 |
ubi temptaverunt me patres vestri probaverunt et viderunt opera mea
Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,
|
| 10 |
quadraginta annos propter quod infensus fui generationi huic et dixi semper errant corde ipsi autem non cognoverunt vias meas
Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways.
|
| 11 |
sicut iuravi in ira mea si introibunt in requiem meam
As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.
|
| 12 |
videte fratres ne forte sit in aliquo vestrum cor malum incredulitatis discedendi a Deo vivo
Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.
|
| 13 |
sed adhortamini vosmet ipsos per singulos dies donec hodie cognominatur ut non obduretur quis ex vobis fallacia peccati
But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called to day, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
|
| 14 |
participes enim Christi effecti sumus si tamen initium substantiae usque ad finem firmum retineamus
For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.
|
| 15 |
dum dicitur hodie si vocem eius audieritis nolite obdurare corda vestra quemadmodum in illa exacerbatione
While it is said: To day, if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.
|
| 16 |
quidam enim audientes exacerbaverunt sed non universi qui profecti sunt ab Aegypto per Mosen
For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
|
| 17 |
quibus autem infensus est quadraginta annos nonne illis qui peccaverunt quorum cadavera prostrata sunt in deserto
And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?
|
| 18 |
quibus autem iuravit non introire in requiem ipsius nisi illis qui increduli fuerunt
And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?
|
| 19 |
et videmus quia non potuerunt introire propter incredulitatem
And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.
