Hebrews 3:10-11

10 That is why I became angry with them.

I said, “They always want to do what is wrong.

They refuse to understand my message.”

11 Because of that, I promised to punish them.

Because I was angry with them, I said,

“They will never arrive in my special place of rest.” ’

3:11Many years before, God rescued his people from Egypt, where they had been slaves. He promised to take them to a land that would be their new home. It would be a place where they would have rest. But the people did not trust God. See Exodus 17:1-7; Numbers 14:1-35. So God did not let those people go into the country that he had promised them. Only their children could go there.
