28 Say to them, (A)‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you: 29 The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness, (B)all of you who were numbered, according to your entire number, from twenty years old and above. 30 (C)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 (D)But your little ones, whom you said would be victims, I will bring in, and they shall [b]know the land which (E)you have despised. 32 But as for you, (F)your[c] carcasses shall fall in this wilderness. 33 And your sons shall (G)be [d]shepherds in the wilderness (H)forty years, and (I)bear the brunt of your infidelity, until your carcasses are consumed in the wilderness. 34 (J)According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land, (K)forty days, for each day you shall bear your [e]guilt one year, namely forty years, (L)and you shall know My [f]rejection. 35 (M)I the Lord have spoken this. I will surely do so to all (N)this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. In this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.’ ”

They will meet their end in this wilderness; here they will die.(P)”

Hebrews 3:8-19
New King James Version
8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
In the day of trial in the wilderness,
9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.
10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’
11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”
12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but [a]exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, 15 while it is said:
(A)“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
Failure of the Wilderness Wanderers
16 (B)For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses? 17 Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, (C)whose corpses fell in the wilderness? 18 And (D)to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of (E)unbelief.

8 do not harden your hearts(A)
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
9 where your ancestors tested and tried me,
though for forty years they saw what I did.(B)
10 That is why I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,(C)
‘They shall never enter my rest.’ (D)”[a](E)
12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.(F) 13 But encourage one another daily,(G) as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.(H) 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold(I) our original conviction firmly to the very end.(J) 15 As has just been said:
16 Who were they who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?(L) 17 And with whom was he angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies perished in the wilderness?(M) 18 And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest(N) if not to those who disobeyed?(O) 19 So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.(P)
