Hebrews 3:12-15
New Living Translation
12 Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters.[a] Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God. 13 You must warn each other every day, while it is still “today,” so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God. 14 For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. 15 Remember what it says:
“Today when you hear his voice,
don’t harden your hearts
as Israel did when they rebelled.”[b]
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]
