Warning against unbelief

Heb 3:7–19

7Therefore the holy spirit says:[ref]

Today if you hear his voice,

8don’t harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion,

in the time of testing in the wilderness

9where your ancestors tested me through trials,

although they saw my actions 10over forty years.

That’s why I was angry with that generation and I said:

‘They’re always straying in their hearts and they don’t really know my ways.’

11As I decided in my severe anger:

‘They will never be entering into my peace.’

12Brothers and sisters, watch out in case any of you has an evil heart with unbelief which leads you to withdraw from the living God. 13Instead urge yourselves on throughout each day (while it’s still calledtoday’) so that some of you won’t become hardened by the sin’s seduction 14because we are now partakers of the messiah if we can retain until the end the assurance that we had at the beginning. 15As it’s been said:[ref]

Today if you all hear his voice,

don’t harden your hearts as you did when you rebelled.’

16Did some people heard and yet rebel? Didn’t Mosheh lead all of the people out of Egypt (Mitsrayim)?[ref] 17Who was he angry with for forty years? Wasn’t it the people who disobeyed God and who died there in the wilderness? 18And who did God promise that they wouldn’t enter his rest, if it wasn’t the people who disbelieved? 19So we can now see that they weren’t able to enter the promised land because of their unbelief.

Psa 95:7-11 (LXX):

7because he’s our God.

We are the people he shepherds.

We are the sheep in his care.[ref]


If only all of you would listen to his voice today.

8Don’t become stubborn like your ancestors did at Meribah,[ref]

and like they did in the wilderness at Massah.

9Your ancestors tried my patience

even though they’d seen me perform miracles.

10I was angry with that generation and said,

These people are very happy to do their own thing.

They’re not really interested in following my instructions.’

11So I got angry at them and made a decision

that they would never be allowed to enter the region where I would have given them peace.[ref]
