Hebrews 3:8-11

8Do not refuse to obey him. Do not be like God's people many years ago. When they travelled in the wilderness, they turned against me. They wanted to see if I would punish them.

9For 40 years your ancestors saw the great things that I did. But still they did not obey me.

10That is why I became angry with them. I said, “They always want to do what is wrong. They refuse to understand my message.”

11Because of that, I promised to punish them. Because I was angry with them, I said, “They will never arrive in my special place of rest.” ’
