Numbers 14:36-39

36So the men Moses had sent to explore the land, who returned and made the whole community grumble against him by spreading a bad report about it—

37these men who were responsible for spreading the bad report about the land were struck down and died of a plague before the Lord.

38Of the men who went to explore the land, only Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh survived.

39When Moses reported this to all the Israelites, they mourned bitterly.
