Reading 1, Hebrews 3:7-14

⁷ That is why, as the Holy Spirit says: If only you would listen to him today!

⁸ Do not harden your hearts, as at the rebellion, as at the time of testing in the desert,

⁹ when your ancestors challenged me, and put me to the test, and saw what I could do

¹⁰ for forty years. That was why that generation sickened me and I said, 'Always fickle hearts, that cannot grasp my ways!'

¹¹ And then in my anger I swore that they would never enter my place of rest.

¹² Take care, brothers, that none of you ever has a wicked heart, so unbelieving as to turn away from the living God.

¹³ Every day, as long as this today lasts, keep encouraging one another so that none of you is hardened by the lure of sin,

¹⁴ because we have been granted a share with Christ only if we keep the grasp of our first confidence firm to the end.

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 95:6-7, 8-9, 10-11

⁶ Come, let us bow low and do reverence; kneel before Yahweh who made us!

⁷ For he is our God, and we the people of his sheepfold, the flock of his hand. If only you would listen to him today!

⁸ Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, as at the time of Massah in the desert,

⁹ when your ancestors challenged me, put me to the test, and saw what I could do!

¹⁰ For forty years that generation sickened me, and I said, 'Always fickle hearts; they cannot grasp my ways.'

¹¹ Then in my anger I swore they would never enter my place of rest.
