HEBREWS 3:7-11 GOD'S WORD TRANSLATION
7 As the Holy Spirit says, “If you hear God speak today, don’t be stubborn.
8 Don’t be stubborn like those who rebelled and tested me in the desert.
9 That is where your ancestors tested me,
10 although they had seen what I had done for 40 years. That is why I was angry with those people. So I said, ‘Their hearts continue to stray, and they have not learned my ways.’
11 So I angrily took a solemn oath that they would never enter my place of rest.”
HEBREWS 3:7-11 THE MESSAGE TRANSLATION
6-11 Now, if we can only keep a firm grip on this bold confidence, we’re the house! That’s why the Holy Spirit says, Today, please listen; don’t turn a deaf ear as in “the bitter uprising,” that time of wilderness testing! Even though they watched me at work for forty years, your ancestors refused to let me do it my way; over and over they tried my patience. And I was provoked, oh, so provoked! I said, “They’ll never keep their minds on God; they refuse to walk down my road.” Exasperated, I vowed, “They’ll never get where they’re going, never be able to sit down and rest.”
