5 And Moses is faithful in all his house, as a servant, to bear witness to the things that ought to be declared;

6 but Christ is as the Son in His house; but we are His house, if only we keep the boldness and hope of which we boast firmly to the end.

7 Wherefore, as the Holy Spirit says, now, when ye hear his voice,

8 Harden not your hearts, as in the time of murmuring, in the day of temptation in the wilderness,

9 where your fathers tempted me, tried me, and saw my works forty years.

10 Therefore I was indignant with this generation, and said, 'They are continually deceived in their hearts, they have not known my ways;

11 Therefore I have sworn in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.

12 Take heed, brethren, that there be no evil and unfaithful heart in any of you, lest you depart from the living God.

13 But instruct one another every day, as long as it is possible to say, 'Today,' lest any of you be hardened, being deceived by sin.

14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if only we keep the life we have begun firmly to the end,

15 For as long as it is said, "Now when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as in the time of murmuring."

16 For some of those who heard murmured; but not all those who came out of Egypt with Moses.

17 Against whom then did he be indignant for forty years? Is it not on those who have sinned, whose bones fell in the wilderness?

18 Against whom then did he swear that they would not enter into his rest, but against those who were disobedient?

E-19 So we see that they couldn't come in because of unbelief.

1 Wherefore let us beware lest, when there is still a promise to enter into his rest, any of you be found late.

2 For it has been declared unto us, as also to them; but the word they heard did not profit them, not dissolved by the faith of those who heard.
