1 Therefore, holy brothers, you share in a heavenly calling. Think about Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.
1 POR tanto, hermanos santos, participantes de la vocación celestial, considerad al Apóstol y Pontífice de nuestra profesión, Cristo Jesús;
1 Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,
2 He was faithful to God, who appointed him, just as Moses was also faithful in God's house.
2 El cual es fiel al que le constituyó, como también lo fué Moisés sobre toda su casa.
2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also Moses was in all his house.
3 For Jesus has been considered worthy of greater glory than Moses, because the one who builds a house has more honor than the house itself.
3 Porque de tanto mayor gloria que Moisés éste es estimado digno, cuanto tiene mayor dignidad que la casa el que la fabricó.
3 For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who built the house has more honor than the house.
4 For every house is built by someone, but the one who built everything is God.
4 Porque toda casa es edificada de alguno: mas el que crió todas las cosas es Dios.
4 For every house is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
5 For Moses was faithful as a servant in God's entire house, bearing witness about the things that were to be spoken of in the future.
5 Y Moisés á la verdad fué fiel sobre toda su casa, como siervo, para testificar lo que se había de decir;
5 Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken,
6 But Christ is faithful as a Son who is in charge of God's house. We are his house if we hold fast to our courage and the hope of which we boast.
6 Mas Cristo como hijo, sobre su casa; la cual casa somos nosotros, si hasta el cabo retuviéremos firme la confianza y la gloria de la esperanza.
6 but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
7 Therefore, it is just as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice
7 Por lo cual, como dice el Espíritu Santo: Si oyereis hoy su voz,
7 Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, “Today if you will hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the time of testing in the wilderness.
8 No endurezcáis vuestros corazones como en la provocación, en el día de la tentación en el desierto,
8 don’t harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of the trial in the wilderness,
9 This was when your ancestors rebelled by testing me, and when, during forty years, they saw my deeds.
9 Donde me tentaron vuestros padres; me probaron, y vieron mis obras cuarenta años.
9 where your fathers tested me and tried me, and saw my deeds for forty years.
10 Therefore I was displeased with that generation. I said, 'They have always gone astray in their hearts. They have not known my ways.'
10 A causa de lo cual me enemisté con esta generación, y dije: Siempre divagan ellos de corazón, y no han conocido mis caminos.
10 Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, ‘They always err in their heart, but they didn’t know my ways.’
11 It is just as I swore in my anger: 'They will never enter my rest.'”
11 Juré, pues, en mi ira: No entrarán en mi reposo.
11 As I swore in my wrath, ‘They will not enter into my rest.’”
12 Be careful, brothers, so that among you there will not be anyone with an evil heart of unbelief, a heart that turns away from the living God.
12 Mirad, hermanos, que en ninguno de vosotros haya corazón malo de incredulidad para apartarse del Dios vivo:
12 Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
13 Instead, encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “today,” so that no one among you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
13 Antes exhortaos los unos á los otros cada día, entre tanto que se dice Hoy; porque ninguno de vosotros se endurezca con engaño de pecado:
13 but 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.
14 For we have become partners of Christ if we firmly hold to our confidence in him from the beginning to the end.
14 Porque participantes de Cristo somos hechos, con tal que conservemos firme hasta el fin el principio de nuestra confianza;
14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,
15 About this it has been said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
15 Entre tanto que se dice: Si oyereis hoy su voz, no endurezcáis vuestros corazones, como en la provocación.
15 while it is said, “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
16 Who was it who heard God and rebelled? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt through Moses?
16 Porque algunos de los que habían salido de Egipto con Moisés, habiendo oído, provocaron, aunque no todos.
16 For who, when they heard, rebelled? Wasn’t it all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?
17 With whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?
17 Mas ¿con cuáles estuvo enojado cuarenta años? ¿No fué con los que pecaron, cuyos cuerpos cayeron en el desierto?
17 With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
18 To whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if it was not to those who disobeyed him?
18 ¿Y á quiénes juró que no entrarían en su reposo, sino á aquellos que no obedecieron?
18 To whom did he swear that they wouldn’t enter into his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
19 We see that they were not able to enter his rest because of unbelief.
19 Y vemos que no pudieron entrar á causa de incredulidad.
19 We see that they weren’t able to enter in because of unbelief.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Paul, having treated of hope, and having said that "We are His house, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end" ( c. iii. ver. 6 ); next shows that we ought to look forward with firmness, and he proves this from the Scriptures.

… righteous man, and blameless, truthful, God-fearing, and one that kept himself from all evil." But bringing an accusation against himself, he said, "No man is free from defilement, even if his life be but of one day." Moses was called faithful in all God's house; and through his instrumentality, God punished Egypt with plagues and tortures.
… Moses himself, being a man of God, was indeed given as a god before Pharaoh; but he is not properly termed Lord, nor is called God by the prophets, but is spoken of by the Spirit as "Moses, the faithful minister and servant of God," which also he was.
For neither when John saith, "He is mightier than I," doth he say it as comparing them; nor Paul, when remembering Moses he writes, "For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses," doth he so write by way of comparison; and He Himself too, in saying, "Behold, a greater than Solomon is here," speaks not as making …

According as Paul says in another place, And exhort each other daily, while it is called to-day; meaning, "continually." For as we may not speak of the "beginning of the days" of Christ, so neither suffer thou that any should ever speak of the end of His kingdom.
