Hebrews 3:12-15
New English Translation
12 See to it,[a] brothers and sisters,[b] that none of you has[c] an evil, unbelieving heart that forsakes[d] the living God.[e] 13 But exhort one another each day, as long as it is called “Today,” that none of you may become hardened by sin’s deception. 14 For we have become partners with Christ, if in fact we hold our initial confidence[f] firm until the end. 15 As it says,[g] “Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks![h] Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”[i]

Hebrews 3:12-15
World English Bible
12 Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God; 13 but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called “today”, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end, 15 while it is said,
“Today if you will hear his voice,
don’t harden your hearts, as in the rebellion.”
