5. Moses was a faithful servant in God’s household. He told ⌊the people⌋ what God would say in the future.
6. But Christ is a faithful son in charge of God’s household. We are his household if we continue to have courage and to be proud of the confidence we have.
7. As the Holy Spirit says,“If you hear God speak today, don’t be stubborn.
8. Don’t be stubborn like those who rebelledand tested me in the desert.
9. That is where your ancestors tested me,
10. although they had seen what I had done for 40 years.That is why I was angry with those people. So I said,‘Their hearts continue to stray,and they have not learned my ways.’
11. So I angrily took a solemn oaththat they would never enter my place of rest.”
12. Be careful, brothers and sisters, that none of you ever develop a wicked, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
13. Encourage each other every day while you have the opportunity. If you do this, none of you will be deceived by sin and become stubborn.
14. After all, we will remain Christ’s partners only if we continue to hold on to our original confidence until the end.
15. Scripture says,“If you hear God speak today, don’t be stubborn.Don’t be stubborn like those who rebelled.”
16. Who heard God and rebelled? All those whom Moses led out of Egypt rebelled.
17. With whom was God angry for 40 years? He was angry with those who sinned and died in the desert.
