Yehudim In Moshiach 3:7-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. Therefore, just as the Ruach Hakodesh says, "HAYOM IM BEKOLO TISHMAU ("Today, if you hear His voice" TEHILLIM 95:7f);

8. AL TAKSHU LEVAVCHEM KIMRIVAH K'YOM MASSAH BAMIDBAR ("Do not harden your heart as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert")

9. ASHER NISSUNI AVOTECHEM BEKHANUNI GAM RA'U PO'OLI ARBA'IM SHANAH ("Where your Fathers tested me and tried me though they saw my deeds forty years")

10. Therefore "AKUT BEDOR VAOMAR AM TO'EY LEVAV HEM V'HEM LO YAD'U DERAKHAI" ("I was angry with that generation and I said they are a strayingof-heart people and they have not had da'as of my ways");

11. ASHER NISHBA'ETI V'APEY IM YEVO'UN EL MENUKHATI ("Therefore I declared on oath in my anger, Never shall they enter into my Rest, Home, Abode, Place of Tranquility.") [BERESHIS 49:15; TEHILLIM 23; YESHAYAH 28:12; 66:1; RUTH 1:9; MELACHIM ALEF 8:56]

12. Beware, Achim b'Moshiach, lest there will be in any one of you a lev rah (evil heart) without Emunah, that turns away shmad from Elohim Chayyim.

13. Instead, give one another chozek (strength) each and every day, as long as it is still called "HAYOM," ("today, " TEHILLIM 95:7) lest some of you may fall into KESHI (stubbornness, hardness DEVARM 9:27) and be stubbornly hardened by the nechalim (deceitfulness) of Chet.

14. We have become chavrusa partners of Moshiach if only our bitachon (confidence) we had initially we hold firm until HaKetz;

15. As it is said, "HAYOM IM BEKOLO TISHMAU AL TAKSHU LEVAVCHEM ("Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your heart" TEHILLIM 95:7) as in the Meribah Mered (Rebellion) [the Ma'al shmad Defection, the Azivah Desertion, see 2Th 2:3].
