“Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness,
9 where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.
9
where your ancestors tested me; they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 Forty years was I grieved with this generation, and said, They do always err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.
10
For forty years I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
11
So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ”
