Numbers 14:11-35

111The LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “HowH575 longH5704 will thisH2088 peopleH5971 spurnH5006 Me? And howH575 longH5704 will 2they not believeH539 in Me, despite allH3605 the signsH226 whichH834 I have performedH6213 in their midstH7130? 12I will smiteH5221 them with 34pestilenceH1698 and dispossessH3423 them, and I 5will makeH6213 you into a nationH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 thanH4480 they.”

136But MosesH4872 saidH559 to the LordH3068, “Then the EgyptiansH4714 will hearH8085 of it, for by Your strengthH3581 You broughtH5927 up thisH2088 peopleH5971 from their midstH7130, 14and they will tellH559 it to the inhabitantsH3427 of thisH2088 landH776. They have heardH8085 that You, O LordH3068, are in the midstH7130 of thisH2088 peopleH5971, for 7You, O LordH3068, are seenH7200 eyeH5869 to eyeH5869, while Your cloudH6051 standsH5975 overH5921 them; and You goH1980 beforeH6440 them in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119 and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915. 15Now if You slayH5221 thisH2088 peopleH5971 as oneH259 manH376, 8then the nationsH1471 whoH834 have heardH8085 of Your fameH8088 will 9sayH559, 16‘BecauseH4480 the LordH3068 10couldH3201 not bringH935 thisH2088 peopleH5971 into the landH776 whichH834 He promisedH7650 them by oathH7650, therefore He slaughteredH7819 them in the wildernessH4057.’ 17But nowH6258, I prayH4994, let the powerH3581 of the LordH136 be greatH1431, justH3512 as You have 11declaredH1696H559, 18‘12The LordH3068 is slowH750 to angerH639 and abundantH7227 in lovingkindnessH2617, forgivingH5375 iniquityH5771 and transgressionH6588; but 13He will by noH3808 meansH5352 clearH5352 the guilty, 14visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 on the childrenH1121 15to the thirdH8029 and the fourthH7256 generations.’ 1916PardonH5545, I prayH4994, the iniquityH5771 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 according to the greatnessH1433 of Your lovingkindnessH2617, justH3512 as You also have forgivenH5375 thisH2088 peopleH5971, from EgyptH4714 even untilH5704 nowH2008.”

20So the LordH3068 saidH559, “17I have pardonedH5545 them according to your wordH1697; 21but indeedH199, 18as I liveH2416, 1920allH3605 the earthH776 will be filledH4390 with the gloryH3519 of the LordH3068. 22SurelyH3588 21allH3605 the menH376 who have seenH7200 My gloryH3519 and My signsH226 whichH834 I performedH6213 in EgyptH4714 and in the wildernessH4057, yet 22have putH5254 Me to the testH5254 theseH2088 tenH6235 timesH6471 and have not listenedH8085 to My voiceH6963, 2323shall by noH518 meansH518 seeH7200 the landH776 whichH834 I sworeH7650 to their fathersH1, norH3808 shall anyH3605 of those who spurnedH5006 Me seeH7200 it. 24But My servantH5650 CalebH3612, 24becauseH6118 he hasH5973 hadH1961 a differentH312 spiritH7307 and has followedH310 Me fullyH4390, 2526I will bringH935 into the landH776 27whichH834 he enteredH935, and his 28descendantsH2233 shall takeH3423 possessionH3423 of it. 2529Now the AmalekitesH6003 and the CanaanitesH3669 liveH3427 in the valleysH6010; turnH6437 tomorrowH4279 and setH5265 out to the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 of the 30RedH5488H3220 SeaH3220.”

26The LordH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175, sayingH559, 27“HowH4970 longH5704H4970 shall I bear with thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 whoH834 are 31grumblingH3885 againstH5921 Me? I have heardH8085 the complaintsH8519 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, whichH834 they are 32makingH3885 againstH5921 Me. 28SayH559 to them, ‘33As I liveH2416,’ saysH5002 the LordH3068, ‘justH3512 as 34you have spokenH1696 in My hearingH241, soH3651 I will surely doH6213 to you; 2935your corpsesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057, even allH3605 36your 37numberedH6485 men, according to your completeH3605 numberH4557 from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605, whoH834 have grumbledH3885 againstH5921 Me. 30SurelyH518 you shall not comeH935 into the landH776 in whichH834 I 38sworeH5375H3027 to settleH7931 you, 39exceptH3588H518 CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 and JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126. 3140Your childrenH2945, however, whomH834 you saidH559 would becomeH1961 a preyH957--I will bringH935 them in, and they will knowH3045 the landH776 whichH834 you have rejectedH3988. 3241But as for you, your corpsesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057. 33Your sonsH1121 shall be shepherdsH7462 for 42fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wildernessH4057, and they will 43sufferH5375 for your 44unfaithfulnessH2184, untilH5704 your corpsesH6297 45lieH8552 in the wildernessH4057. 34According to the 46numberH4557 of daysH3117 whichH834 you spiedH8446 out the landH776, fortyH705 daysH3117, for everyH3117 dayH3117 you shall bearH5375 your 47guiltH5771 a yearH8141, even fortyH705 yearsH8141, and you will knowH3045 My oppositionH8569. 3548I, the LordH3068, have spokenH1696, surelyH518H3808 thisH2088 I will doH6213 to allH3605 thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 who are gatheredH3259 together againstH5921 Me. In thisH2088 wildernessH4057 they shall be destroyedH8552, and thereH8033 they will dieH4191.’”
