Hebrews 3:7-11
New International Version
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)
