12 Watch out, brothers and sisters, so that there won’t be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart that turns away(A) from the living God. 13 But encourage each other daily,(B) while it is still called today, so that none of you is hardened(C) by sin’s deception.(D) 14 For we have become participants in Christ if we hold firmly until the end the reality[a] that we had at the start.(E) 15 As it is said:

Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.[b](F)

16 For who heard and rebelled? Wasn’t it all who came out of Egypt under Moses?(G) 17 With whom was God angry for forty years? Wasn’t it with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?(H) 18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, if not to those who disobeyed?
