34 “Then the Lord heard the sound of your words, and He was angry and (A)swore an oath, saying, 35 (B)Not one of these men, this evil generation, shall see the good land which I swore to give your fathers, 36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and (C)to him I will give the land on which he has set foot, and to his sons, because he has followed the Lord fully.’ 37 (D)The Lord was angry with me also on your account, saying, ‘(E)Not even you shall enter there. 38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, (F)shall himself enter there; encourage him, for (G)he will give it to Israel as an inheritance. 39 Moreover, (H)your little ones who, you said, would become plunder, and your sons, who this day have (I)no knowledge of good and evil, shall enter there, and I will give it to them and they shall take possession of it. 40 But as for you, (J)turn around and set out for the wilderness by the way of the [a]Red Sea.’

34 “Then Yahweh heard the sound of your words, and he was angry, and he swore, saying,[a] 35 ‘No one of these men[b] of this evil generation will see the good land that I swore to give to your ancestors,[c] 36 except Caleb, the son of Jephunneh; he himself[d] shall see it, and to him I will give the land upon which he has trodden and to his sons[e] because he followed Yahweh unreservedly.’[f] 37 Even with me Yahweh was angry because of you, saying, ‘Not even you shall enter there. 38 Joshua, the son of Nun, your assistant,[g] will go there; encourage him because he will cause Israel to inherit it. 39 And your little children, who you thought shall become plunder, and your sons, who do not today know good or bad, shall themselves[h] go there, and I will give it to them, and they shall take possession of it. 40 But you turn and set out in the direction of the wilderness by way of the Red Sea.’[i]
