- 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.'
- So I declared on oath in my anger, 'They shall never enter my rest.' "
|
- 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.
- Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
- So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

- See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
- But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness.
- We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first.
- As has just been said: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion."
- Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?
|
- Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
- But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
- For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
- While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
- For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
|
- And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the desert?
- And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed?
- So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.
|
- But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
- And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
- So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
