Bible in Basic English

10

So that I was angry with this generation, and I said, Their hearts are in error at all times, and they have no knowledge of my ways;

11

And being angry I made an oath, saying, They may not come into my rest.

12

My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:

13

But give comfort to one another every day as long as it is still Today; so that no one among you may be made hard by the deceit of sin:

14

For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;

15

As it is said, Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart, as when you made him angry.

16

Who made him angry when his voice came to them? was it not all those who came out of Egypt with Moses?

17

And with whom was he angry for forty years? was it not with those who did evil, who came to their deaths in the waste land?

18

And to whom did he make an oath that they might not come into his rest? was it not to those who went against his orders?

19

So we see that they were not able to go in because they had no belief.

KJV
“Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. ”
