20So the LordH3068 saidH559, “1I have forgivenH5545 them in accordance with your wordH1697; 21howeverH199, 2as I liveH2416, 34allH3605 the earthH776 will be filledH4390 with the gloryH3519 of the LordH3068. 22CertainlyH3588 5allH3605 the peopleH376 who have seenH7200 My gloryH3519 and My signsH226 whichH834 I performedH6213 in EgyptH4714 and in the wildernessH4057, yet 6have putH5254 Me toH5254 theH5254 testH5254 theseH2088 tenH6235 timesH6471 and have not listenedH8085 to My voiceH6963, 237shall by noH518 meansH518 seeH7200 the landH776 whichH834 I sworeH7650 to their fathersH1, norH3808 shall anyH3605 of those who wereH5006 disrespectfulH5006 to Me seeH7200 it. 24But as for My servantH5650 CalebH3612, 8becauseH6118 he has hadH1961H5973 a differentH312 spiritH7307 and has followedH310 Me fullyH4390, 9I will bringH935 him into the landH776 whichH834 he 10enteredH935, and his 11descendantsH2233 shall takeH3423 possessionH3423 of it. 2512Now the AmalekitesH6003 and the CanaanitesH3669 liveH3427 in the valleysH6010; turnH6437 tomorrowH4279 and setH5265 outH5265 for the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 of the 13RedH5488 SeaH3220.”
26The LordH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175 again, sayingH559, 27“HowH4970 longH5704H4970 shall I put up with thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 whoH834 are 14grumblingH3885 againstH5921 Me? I have heardH8085 the complaintsH8519 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 whichH834 they are 15voicingH3885 againstH5921 Me. 28SayH559 to them, ‘16As I liveH2416,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068, ‘justH3512 asH3512 17you have spokenH1696 in My hearingH241, soH3651 I will doH6213 to you; 2918your deadH6297 bodiesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057, allH3605 19your 20numberedH6485 men according to your completeH3605 numberH4557 from twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and upwardH4605, whoH834 have grumbledH3885 againstH5921 Me. 30By noH518 meansH518 will you comeH935 into the landH776 whereH834 I 21sworeH5375H3027 to settleH7931 you, 22exceptH3588H518 for CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 and JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126. 3123Your childrenH2945, however, whomH834 you saidH559 would becomeH1961 plunderH957--I will bringH935 them inH935, and they will knowH3045 the landH776 whichH834 you have rejectedH3988. 3224But as for you, your deadH6297 bodiesH6297 will fallH5307 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057. 33Also, your sonsH1121 will be shepherdsH7462 in the wildernessH4057 for 25fortyH705 yearsH8141, and they will 26sufferH5375 for your unfaithfulnessH2184, untilH5704 your bodiesH6297 perishH8552 in the wildernessH4057. 34In accordance with the 27numberH4557 of daysH3117 that you spiedH8446 outH8446 the landH776, fortyH705 daysH3117, for everyH3117 dayH3117 you shall sufferH5375 the punishmentH5771 forH5771 your 28guiltH5771 a yearH8141, that is, fortyH705 yearsH8141, and you will knowH3045 My oppositionH8569. 3529I, the LordH3068, have spokenH1696, I certainlyH518H3808 will doH6213 thisH2088 to allH3605 thisH2088 evilH7451 congregationH5712 who are gatheredH3259 togetherH3259 againstH5921 Me. They shall beH8552 wornH8552 outH8552 in thisH2088 wildernessH4057, and thereH8033 they shall dieH4191.’”
3630As for the menH376 whomH834 MosesH4872 sentH7971 to spyH8446 outH8446 the landH776, and who returnedH7725 and led allH3605 the congregationH5712 to grumbleH3885 againstH5921 him by bringingH3318 a badH1681 reportH1681 aboutH5921 the landH776, 3731those menH376 who broughtH3318 the badH7451 reportH1681 of the landH776 also diedH4191 by a 32plagueH4046 in the presenceH6440 of the LordH3068. 38But JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 and CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312 remainedH2421 aliveH2421 out of thoseH1992 menH376 who wentH1980 to spyH8446 outH8446 the landH776.
39Now when MosesH4872 spokeH1696 33theseH428 wordsH1697 to allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, 34the peopleH5971 mournedH56 greatlyH3966.
