do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness

As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.”

do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness

As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

don’t harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled, when they tested me in the wilderness.

Remember what it says: “Today when you hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled.”

do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness

As it is said: Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.  

Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, In the day of temptation in the wilderness

while it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In the day of trial in the wilderness

while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

Now, if we can only keep a firm grip on this bold confidence, we’re the house! That’s why the Holy Spirit says, Today, please listen; don’t turn a deaf ear as in “the bitter uprising,” that time of wilderness testing! Even though they watched me at work for forty years, your ancestors refused to let me do it my way; over and over they tried my patience. And I was provoked, oh, so provoked! I said, “They’ll never keep their minds on God; they refuse to walk down my road.” Exasperated, I vowed, “They’ll never get where they’re going, never be able to sit down and rest.”

For who were the people who turned a deaf ear? Weren’t they the very ones Moses led out of Egypt? And who was God provoked with for forty years? Wasn’t it those who turned a deaf ear and ended up corpses in the wilderness? And when he swore that they’d never get where they were going, wasn’t he talking to the ones who turned a deaf ear? They never got there because they never listened, never believed.

DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME, AS ON THE DAY OF TRIAL IN THE WILDERNESS

while it is said, “TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS, AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME.”

DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS [your fathers did] IN THE REBELLION [of Israel at Meribah], ON THE DAY OF TESTING IN THE WILDERNESS

while it is said, “TODAY [while there is still opportunity] IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEART, AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME [in the rebellion in the desert at Meribah].” [Ps 95:7, 8]

“ Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion , in the day of testing in the wilderness .

As it says, “ Oh , that today you would listen as he speaks! Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion .”
