A Rest for the People of God
7Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,
b“Today, if you hear his voice,
8do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
on the day of testing in the wilderness,
9where your fathers put me to the test
and saw my works for cforty years.
10Therefore I was provoked with that generation,
and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;
they have not known my ways.’
11dAs I swore in my wrath,
‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
12Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from ethe living God. 13But fexhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by gthe deceitfulness of sin. 14For we have come to share in Christ, hif indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. 15As it is said,
b“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
16For iwho were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not jall those who left Egypt led by Moses? 17And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, kwhose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18And to whom did he swear that lthey would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19So we see that mthey were unable to enter because of unbelief.
