6 But Christ is the Son in charge of God's people. And we are those people, if we keep on being brave and don't lose hope.
7 It is just as the Holy Spirit says,“If you hear God's voice today,
8 don't be stubborn!Don't rebel like those peoplewho were testedin the desert.*
9 For forty years your ancestorstested God and sawthe things he did.
10 “Then God got tired of themand said,‘You people nevershow good sense,and you don't understandwhat I want you to do.’
11 God became angryand told the people,‘You will never entermy place of rest!’ ”
12 My friends, watch out! Don't let evil thoughts or doubts make any of you turn from the living God.
