8  ^rdo not harden your hearts, as at ^sMeribah,

as on the day at ^tMassah in the wilderness,

9  when your fathers put me to the ^utest

and put me to the proof, though they had seen my ^vwork.

10  ^wFor forty years I loathed that generation

and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart,

and they have not known ^xmy ways.”

11  Therefore I ^yswore in my wrath,

“They shall not enter ^zmy rest.”

10  ⁱwho struck down many nations

and killed mighty kings,

11  ^jSihon, king of the Amorites,

and ^kOg, king of Bashan,

and ^lall the kingdoms of Canaan,

12  and ^mgave their land as a heritage,

a heritage to his people Israel.
