For He is our God,
And (A)we are the people of His pasture,
And the sheep [a]of His hand.

(B)Today, if you will hear His voice:
“Do not harden your hearts, as in the [b]rebellion,
(C)As in the day of [c]trial in the wilderness,
When (D)your fathers tested Me;
They tried Me, though they (E)saw My work.
10 For (F)forty years I was [d]grieved with that generation,
And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts,
And they do not know My ways.’
11 So (G)I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

    ‘They shall never enter my rest.’”(J)
