Hebrews 3:2-9 King James Version (KJV)who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house. For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; but Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end. Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith,To day if ye will hear his voice,Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation,In the day of temptation in the wilderness:When your fathers tempted me, proved me,And saw my works forty years.

Hebrews 3:1-11 The Message (MSG)So, my dear Christian friends, companions in following this call to the heights, take a good hard look at Jesus. He’s the centerpiece of everything we believe, faithful in everything God gave him to do. Moses was also faithful, but Jesus gets far more honor. A builder is more valuable than a building any day. Every house has a builder, but the Builder behind them all is God. Moses did a good job in God’s house, but it was all servant work, getting things ready for what was to come. Christ as Son is in charge of the house.Now, if we can only keep a firm grip on this bold confidence, we’re the house! That’s why the Holy Spirit says

Hebrews 3:2-9 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)He was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was in all His house. For He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by just so much as the builder of the house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. Now Moses was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken later; but Christ was faithful as a Son over His house—whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end.Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says,“TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE,DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME,AS IN THE DAY OF TRIAL IN THE WILDERNESS,WHERE YOUR FATHERS TRIED Me BY TESTING Me,AND SAW MY WORKS FOR FORTY YEARS.
Hebrews 3:2-9 New Century Version (NCV)Jesus was faithful to God as Moses was in God’s family. Jesus has more honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. Every house is built by someone, but the builder of everything is God himself. Moses was faithful in God’s family as a servant, and he told what God would say in the future. But Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house. And we are God’s house if we confidently maintain our hope.So it is as the Holy Spirit says:“Today listen to what he says.Do not be stubborn as in the pastwhen you turned against God,when you tested God in the desert.There your ancestors tried me and tested meand saw the things I did for forty years.

Hebrews 3:2-9 Amplified Bible (AMP)He was faithful to Him who appointed Him [Apostle and High Priest], as Moses also was faithful in all God’s house. [Num 12:7] Yet Jesus has been considered worthy of much greater glory and honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. Now Moses was faithful in [the administration of] all God’s house, [but only] as a ministering servant, [his ministry serving] as a testimony of the things which were to be spoken afterward [the revelation to come in Christ]; [Num 12:7] but Christ is faithful as a Son over His [Father’s] house. And we are His house if we hold fast our confidence and sense of triumph in our hope [in Christ].Therefore, just as the Holy Spirit says,“TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE,DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS [your fathers did] IN THE REBELLION [of Israel at Meribah],ON THE DAY OF TESTING IN THE WILDERNESS,WHERE YOUR FATHERS TRIED ME BY TESTING [My forbearance and tolerance],AND SAW MY WORKS FOR FORTY YEARS[And found I stood their test].

Hebrews 3:2-9 New Living Translation (NLT)For he was faithful to God, who appointed him, just as Moses served faithfully when he was entrusted with God’s entire house.But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself. For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.Moses was certainly faithful in God’s house as a servant. His work was an illustration of the truths God would reveal later. But Christ, as the Son, is in charge of God’s entire house. And we are God’s house, if we keep our courage and remain confident in our hope in Christ.That is why the Holy Spirit says,“Today when you hear his voice,don’t harden your heartsas Israel did when they rebelled,when they tested me in the wilderness.There your ancestors tested and tried my patience,even though they saw my miracles for forty years.

Hebrews 3:2-9 The Passion Translation (TPT)For he was faithful to the Father who appointed him, in the same way that Moses was a model of faithfulness in what was entrusted to him. But Jesus is worthy to receive a much greater glory than Moses, for the one who builds a house deserves to be honored more than the house he builds. Every house is built by someone, but God is the Designer and Builder of all things.Indeed, Moses served God faithfully in all he gave him to do. His work prophetically illustrates things that would later be spoken and fulfilled. But Christ is more than a Servant, he was faithful as the Son in charge of God’s house. And now we are part of his house if we continue courageously to hold firmly to our bold confidence and our victorious hope.This is why the Holy Spirit says,“If only you would listen to his voice this day!Don’t make him angry by hardening your hearts,like your ancestors did during the days of their rebellion,when they were tested in the wilderness.There your fathers tested me and tried my patienceeven though they saw my miracles for forty yearsthey still doubted me!
