“Do not harden your hearts, as in the [a]rebellion,
(A)As in the day of [b]trial in the wilderness,
When (B)your fathers tested Me;
They tried Me, though they (C)saw My work.
10 For (D)forty years I was [c]grieved with that generation,

And they do not know My ways.’
11 So (E)I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”
