Therefore we must pay closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks!

For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership?

and the blast of a trumpet and a voice uttering words such that those who heard begged to hear no more.

how will we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was first communicated through the Lord and was confirmed to us by those who heard him,

As it says, “Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks! Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

For we had good news proclaimed to us just as they did. But the message they heard did them no good, since they did not join in with those who heard it in faith.

So God again ordains a certain day, “Today,” speaking through David after so long a time, as in the words quoted before, “O, that today you would listen as he speaks! Do not harden your hearts.”
