Tree of Life Version
Numbers 14:22-35
22none of the people who saw My glory and My miraculous signs I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness—yet tested Me these ten times and did not obey My Voice—
23not one of them will see the land I promised to their forefathers. None of those who treated Me with contempt will see it!
24However, My servant Caleb, because a different spirit is with him and he is wholeheartedly behind Me, I will bring him into the land where he went—his offspring will inherit it.
25Now since the Amalekites and Canaanites are inhabiting the valley, turn back tomorrow and set out by the wilderness route toward the Sea of Reeds.”
26Adonai then said to Moses and Aaron saying,
27“How long will this wicked community be grumbling against Me? I have heard the complaints of Bnei-Yisrael grumbling against Me.
28So tell them, ‘As surely as I live,’ says Adonai, ‘I will do to you just as I heard you say in My ears.
29In this very wilderness your bodies will drop—every one of you 20 years of age and older who was numbered in the census and grumbled against Me.
30Not one of you will enter the land about which I lifted My hand to make home for you—except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
31“As for your children—whom you said would be like plunder—I will bring them in and they will experience the land that you spurned.
32But your bodies will drop in this wilderness.
33Your children will be herdsmen in the wilderness for 40 years. They will suffer because of your unfaithfulness until your corpses are consumed in the wilderness.
34For 40 years, corresponding to the number of the 40 days you explored the land—one year for each day—you will suffer for your iniquities and know My hostility.
35I, Adonai, have spoken and certainly will I do this to all this wicked community banding together against Me. In this wilderness they will meet their end and there they will die!”
