- But Christ is faithful as a son over God's house. And we are his house, if we hold on to our courage and the hope of which we boast.
- So, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you hear his voice,
- do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the desert,
- where your fathers tested and tried me and for forty years saw what I did.
- That is why I was angry with that generation, and I said, 'Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.'

- 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.
- "THEREFORE I WAS ANGRY WITH THIS GENERATION, AND SAID, 'THEY ALWAYS GO ASTRAY IN THEIR HEART, AND THEY DID NOT KNOW MY WAYS';
