2 (A)“The Spirit of the Lord speaks by me;
his word is on my tongue.
3 The God of Israel has spoken;
(B)the Rock of Israel has said to me:
When one rules justly over men,
ruling (C)in the fear of God,

English Standard Version
7 For he is our (A)God,
and we are the people of his (B)pasture,
and the sheep of his hand.
(C)Today, if you (D)hear his voice,
8 (E)do not harden your hearts, as at (F)Meribah,
as on the day at (G)Massah in the wilderness,
9 when your fathers put me to the (H)test
and put me to the proof, though they had seen my (I)work.
10 (J)For forty years I loathed that generation
and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart,
and they have not known (K)my ways.”
11 Therefore I (L)swore in my wrath,
“They shall not enter (M)my rest.”

Psalm 95:7-11
New International Version
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,(A)
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 “Do not harden your hearts(B) as you did at Meribah,[a](C)
as you did that day at Massah[b] in the wilderness,(D)
9 where your ancestors tested(E) me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years(F) I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,(G)
and they have not known my ways.’(H)
11 So I declared on oath(I) in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”(J)

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

Warning Against Unbelief
7 So, as the Holy Spirit says:(A)
“Today, if you hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts(B)
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
9 where your ancestors tested and tried me,
though for forty years they saw what I did.(C)
10 That is why I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,(D)
‘They shall never enter my rest.’ (E)”[a](F)
12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.(G) 13 But encourage one another daily,(H) as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.(I) 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold(J) our original conviction firmly to the very end.(K) 15 As has just been said:
16 Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?(M) 17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness?(N) 18 And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest(O) if not to those who disobeyed?(P) 19 So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.(Q)
