¹² Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from ^(A)the living God. ¹³ But ^(B)exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by ^(C)the deceitfulness of sin. ¹⁴ For we have come to share in Christ, ^(D)if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. ¹⁵ As it is said,

¹⁶ For ^(F)who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not ^(G)all those who left Egypt led by Moses? ¹⁷ And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, ^(H)whose bodies fell in the wilderness? ¹⁸ And to whom did he swear that ^(I)they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? ¹⁹ So we see that ^(J)they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

4 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem ^(K)to have failed to reach it.

¹¹ Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so ^(A)that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. ¹² For ^(B)the word of God is living and ^(C)active, ^(D)sharper than any ^(E)two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and ^(F)discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
