1 tn Grk “they are wandering in the heart.”

2 tn Grk “while it is said.”

3 tn Grk “today if you hear his voice.”

4 sn A quotation from Ps 95:7b-8.

3 tn Or “daily,” “every day.”

4 tn Grk “in assurance of faith.”

5 sn The phrase our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience combines the OT imagery of the sprinkling with blood to give ritual purity with the emphasis on the interior cleansing provided by the new covenant: It is the heart that is cleansed and the conscience made perfect (cf. Heb 8:10; 9:9, 14; 10:2, 16).
