So when I was angry, I made a promise. I said,‘ They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ”( Psalm 95:7–11)

我就在怒中起誓说：‘他们断不可进入我的安息。’”

我在怒中起誓：他们断不可进入我的安息！”

我在怒中起誓：他们断不可进入我的安息！”

我就在愤怒中起誓说，‘他们绝不可进入我的安息。’”

我就在烈怒中起誓，说：‘他们绝不可进入我的安息。’”

所以，我在自己的震怒中起誓说：‘他们绝不能进入我的安息。’”

我就在怒中起誓說：他們斷不可進入我的安息。

我在怒中起誓：他們斷不可進入我的安息！」

我在怒中起誓：他們斷不可進入我的安息！」

我就在憤怒中起誓說，『他們絕不可進入我的安息。』」

我就在烈怒中起誓，說：‘他們絕不可進入我的安息。’”

我就帶着義怒起誓說：「他們斷不得以進我的安息」』——

所以，我在自己的震怒中起誓說：『他們絕不能進入我的安息。』」

我怒而誓曰、彼必不入我之安息也、

我怒誓不許享吾安息、

乃怒而誓曰、必不許其享享原文作入下同我安息、

吾憤乃誓、不令入吾安寧。』

So I declared on oath in my anger,‘ They shall never enter my rest.’”

As I swore in my wrath,‘ They shall not enter my rest.’”

So in my anger I took an oath:‘ They will never enter my place of rest.’”

So I swore in my anger,“ They will not enter my rest.”

As I swore in My anger,‘ They certainly shall not enter My rest.’ ”

So I swore in My wrath,‘ They shall not enter My rest.’”

As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.

So I swore in My anger,“ They will not enter My rest.”

So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

“ As I swore in my anger,‘ They will never enter my rest!’”

As I swore in my wrath,‘ They will not enter into my rest.’”

Between the time we left Kadesh Barnea and the time we went across the Zered Valley, 38 years had passed. By then, all the fighting men who had been in our camp from the beginning had died. The Lord had warned them that it would happen.

The Lord heard what you said. So he became angry. He made a promise. He said,“ I promised to give this good land to your people of long ago. But no one alive today will see it.

Now we who have believed enjoy that rest. God said,“ When I was angry, I made a promise. I said,‘ They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ”( Psalm 95:11) Ever since God created the world, his works have been finished.

I, the Lord, have spoken. I will surely do these things to this entire evil community of Israel. They have joined together against me. They will meet their end in this desert. They will die here.”

In the part of Scripture I talked about earlier God spoke. He said,“ They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.”( Psalm 95:11)

“ How long will this evil community speak against me? I have heard these Israelites talk about how unhappy they are.So tell them,‘ Here is what I am announcing. I am the Lord. You can be sure that I live. And here is what you can be just as sure of. I will do to you the very thing that I heard you say.You will die in this desert. Every one of you 20 years old or more will die. Every one of you who was counted in the list of the people will die. Every one of you who has spoken out against me will be wiped out.I lifted up my hand and promised to make this land your home. But now not all of you will enter the land. Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter it. So will Joshua, the son of Nun. They are the only ones who will enter the land.

So there is still a Sabbath rest for God’s people.

The Lord’ s anger was stirred up that day. So he made a promise. He said,‘ Not one of those who were 20 years old or more when they came up out of Egypt will see the land. They have not followed me with their whole heart. I promised to give the land to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.But not one of the people who came up out of Egypt will see the land except Caleb and Joshua. Caleb is the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite. And Joshua is the son of Nun. They will see the land. They followed the Lord with their whole heart.’The Lord became very angry with Israel. He made them wander around in the desert for 40 years. They wandered until all the people who had done evil in his sight had died.

The Lord replied,“ I have forgiven them, just as you asked.You can be sure that I live. You can be just as sure that my glory fills the whole earth.And here is what you can be just as sure of. Not one of these people will see the land I promised to give them. They have seen my glory. They have seen the signs I did in Egypt. And they have seen what I did in the desert. But they did not obey me. And they have tested me ten times.So not even one of them will ever see the land I promised to give to their people of long ago. The person who has not respected me will never see it.

God promised that those people would never enjoy the rest he planned for them. God gave his word when he made that promise. Didn’t he make that promise to those who didn’t obey?So we see that they weren’t able to enter. That’s because they didn’t believe.

So when I was angry, I made a promise. I said,‘ They will never enjoy the rest I planned for them.’ ”

The Amalekites and the Canaanites are living in the valleys. So turn back tomorrow. Start out toward the desert. Go along the way that leads to the Red Sea.”
