Numbers 14:36-45

³⁶And the men which Moses had sent to search the land (which, when they came againe, made all the people to murmure against him, and brought vp a slander vpon the lande)

³⁷Euen those men that did bring vp that vile slander vpon the land, shall die by a plague before the Lord.

³⁸But Ioshua the sonne of Nun, and Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, of those men that went to search the land, shall liue.

³⁹Then Moses tolde these sayings vnto all the children of Israel, and the people sorowed greatly.

⁴⁰And they rose vp earely in the morning, and gate them vp into the toppe of the mountaine, saying, Loe, we be readie, to goe vp to the place which the Lord hath promised: for wee haue sinned.

⁴¹But Moses said, Wherefore transgresse yee thus the commandement of the Lord? it will not so come well to passe.

⁴²Goe not vp (for the Lord is not among you) lest ye be ouerthrowe before your enemies.

⁴³For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sworde: for in as much as ye are turned away from the Lord, the Lord also will not be with you.

⁴⁴Yet they presumed obstinately to goe vp to the top of the mountaine: but the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, and Moses departed not out of the campe.

⁴⁵Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites, which dwelt in that mountaine, came downe and smote them, and consumed them vnto Hormah.
