“When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.”
King James Version (KJV)
3:9 Where your fathers - That hard - hearted and stiff - necked generation. So little cause had their descendants to glory in them. Tempted me - Whether I could and would help them. Proved me - Put my patience to the proof, even while they saw my glorious works both of judgment and mercy, and that for forty years.
Heb 3:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me. Tempted me by proving me. Seeing how much murmuring and sin I would endure. And saw my works forty years. All his mighty manifestations in their behalf during all the period of their sojourn in the wilderness.
When your fathers tempted me, prooued me, and saw my works fourty yeeres.
