12 My fellow-believers, be careful that no one among you has a heart so evil and unbelieving as to turn away from the living God.
13 Instead, in order that none of you be deceived by sin and become stubborn, you must help one another every day, as long as the word “Today” in the scripture applies to us.
14 For we are all partners with Christ if we hold firmly to the end the confidence we had at the beginning.
15 This is what the scripture says:“If you hear God's voice today,do not be stubborn, as your ancestors werewhen they rebelled against God.”
16 Who were the people who heard God's voice and rebelled against him? All those who were led out of Egypt by Moses.
17 With whom was God angry for forty years? With the people who sinned, who fell down dead in the desert.
18 When God made his solemn promise, “They will never enter the land where I would have given them rest” — of whom was he speaking? Of those who rebelled.
