Numbers 14:29-35

New King James Version

²⁹ The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness, ^(A)all of you who were numbered, according to your entire number, from twenty years old and above. ^30 (B)Except for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun, you shall by no means enter the land which I ^[a]swore I would make you dwell in. ^31 (C)But your little ones, whom you said would be victims, I will bring in, and they shall ^[b]know the land which ^(D)you have despised. ³² But as for you, ^(E)your^[c] carcasses shall fall in this wilderness. ³³ And your sons shall ^(F)be ^[d]shepherds in the wilderness ^(G)forty years, and ^(H)bear the brunt of your infidelity, until your carcasses are consumed in the wilderness. ^34 (I)According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land, ^(J)forty days, for each day you shall bear your ^[e]guilt one year, namely forty years, ^(K)and you shall know My ^[f]rejection. ^35 (L)I the Lord have spoken this. I will surely do so to all ^(M)this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.’ ”
