Hebrews 3:16-19
New Living Translation
16 And who was it who rebelled against God, even though they heard his voice? Wasn’t it the people Moses led out of Egypt? 17 And who made God angry for forty years? Wasn’t it the people who sinned, whose corpses lay in the wilderness? 18 And to whom was God speaking when he took an oath that they would never enter his rest? Wasn’t it the people who disobeyed him? 19 So we see that because of their unbelief they were not able to enter his rest.

New English Translation
16 For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership?[a] 17 And against whom was God[b] provoked for forty years? Was it not those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness?[c] 18 And to whom did he swear they would never enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient? 19 So[d] we see that they could not enter because of unbelief.
