“"To whom did he swear that they should never enter his rest?" To those who did not want to obey Moses, Aaron, Joshua and Caleb … "So we see that they were unable to enter" the land promised to them, not because of their evil actions, even though they were wicked, but "because of unbelief" in the Word of God.”
Ephrem the Syrian, 4th c. — COMMENTARY ON THE EPISTLE TO THE HEBREWS
Original
17But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?

In context
15While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
— Hebrews 3:17 —
18And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
