For he is our (A)God,
    and we are the people of his (B)pasture,
    and the sheep of his hand.
(C)Today, if you (D)hear his voice,
    (E)do not harden your hearts, as at (F)Meribah,
    as on the day at (G)Massah in the wilderness,
when your fathers put me to the (H)test
    and put me to the proof, though they had seen my (I)work.
10 (J)For forty years I loathed that generation
    and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart,
    and they have not known (K)my ways.”
11 Therefore I (L)swore in my wrath,
    “They shall not enter (M)my rest.”

for he is our God
    and we are the people of his pasture,(A)
    the flock under his care.

Today, if only you would hear his voice,
“Do not harden your hearts(B) as you did at Meribah,[a](C)
    as you did that day at Massah[b] in the wilderness,(D)
where your ancestors tested(E) me;
    they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years(F) I was angry with that generation;
    I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,(G)
    and they have not known my ways.’(H)
11 So I declared on oath(I) in my anger,
    ‘They shall never enter my rest.’”(J)

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
