Numbers 32:8-13

English Standard Version

⁸ Your fathers did this, ^(A)when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land. ⁹ For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the people of Israel from going into the land that the Lord had given them. ^10 (B)And the Lord's anger was kindled on that day, and he swore, saying, ¹¹ ‘Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, ^(C)from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land that I swore to give ^(D)to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, because they have not wholly followed me, ¹² none except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the ^(E)Kenizzite and Joshua the son of Nun, for ^(F)they have wholly followed the Lord.’ ¹³ And the Lord's anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them ^(G)wander in the wilderness forty years, until ^(H)all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was gone.
