Numbers 14:27-34

²⁷How long shall indulgence be given to this evil congregation, that murmur against me? the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me, have I heard.

²⁸Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you:

²⁹In this wilderness shall your carcasses fall, and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward; ye who have murmured against me;

³⁰Truly ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I have lifted up my hand to let you dwell therein; save Caleb the son of Yephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

³¹But your little ones of which ye said, They would become a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

³²But as for you, your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness.

³³And your children shall wander about in the wilderness forty years, and bear your backslidings, until your carcasses be spent in the wilderness.

³⁴After the number of the days in which ye spied out the land, forty days, yea, each one day for a year, shall ye bear for your iniquities, forty years; and ye shall experience my withdrawal of protection.
