Numbers 14:26-35
New American Standard Bible
26 The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron again, saying, 27 “How long shall I put up with this evil congregation who are (A)grumbling against Me? I have heard the complaints of the sons of Israel which they are [a]voicing against Me. 28 Say to them, ‘(B)As I live,’ declares the Lord, ‘just as (C)you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you; 29 (D)your dead bodies will fall in this wilderness, all (E)your [b]numbered men according to your complete number from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against Me. 30 By no means will you come into the land where I [c]swore to settle you, (F)except for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun. 31 (G)Your children, however, whom you said would become plunder—I will bring them in, and they will know the land which you have rejected. 32 (H)But as for you, your dead bodies will fall in this wilderness. 33 Also, your sons will be shepherds in the wilderness for (I)forty years, and they will [d]suffer for your unfaithfulness, until your bodies perish in the wilderness. 34 In accordance with the (J)number of days that you spied out the land, forty days, for every day you shall suffer the punishment for your [e]guilt a year, that is, forty years, and you will know My opposition. 35 (K)I, the Lord, have spoken, I certainly will do this to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. They shall be worn out in this wilderness, and there they shall die.’”

Numbers 14:26-35
New International Version
26 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron: 27 “How long will this wicked community grumble against me? I have heard the complaints of these grumbling Israelites.(A) 28 So tell them, ‘As surely as I live,(B) declares the Lord, I will do to you(C) the very thing I heard you say: 29 In this wilderness your bodies will fall(D)—every one of you twenty years old or more(E) who was counted in the census(F) and who has grumbled against me. 30 Not one of you will enter the land(G) I swore with uplifted hand(H) to make your home, except Caleb son of Jephunneh(I) and Joshua son of Nun.(J) 31 As for your children that you said would be taken as plunder, I will bring them in to enjoy the land you have rejected.(K) 32 But as for you, your bodies will fall(L) in this wilderness. 33 Your children will be shepherds here for forty years,(M) suffering for your unfaithfulness, until the last of your bodies lies in the wilderness. 34 For forty years(N)—one year for each of the forty days you explored the land(O)—you will suffer for your sins and know what it is like to have me against you.’ 35 I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will surely do these things(P) to this whole wicked community, which has banded together against me. They will meet their end in this wilderness; here they will die.(Q)”
Psalm 90:3-10
New American Standard Bible
3 You (A)turn mortals back into dust
And say, “Return, you sons of mankind.”
4 For (B)a thousand years in Your sight
Are like (C)yesterday when it passes by,
[a]Or like a (D)watch in the night.
5 You (E)have [b]swept them away like a flood, they [c](F)fall asleep;
In the morning they are like (G)grass that [d]sprouts anew.
6 In the morning it (H)flourishes and [e]sprouts anew;
Toward evening it (I)wilts and (J)withers away.
7 For we have been (K)consumed by Your anger,
And we have been terrified by Your wrath.
8 You have (L)placed our guilty deeds before You,
Our (M)hidden sins in the light of Your presence.
9 For (N)all our days have dwindled away in Your fury;
We have finished our years like a [f]sigh.
10 As for the days of our [g]life, [h]they contain seventy years,
Or if due to strength, (O)eighty years,
Yet their pride is only (P)trouble and tragedy;
For it quickly passes, and we (Q)disappear.

Psalm 90:3-10
New International Version
3 You turn people back to dust,
saying, “Return to dust, you mortals.”(A)
4 A thousand years in your sight
are like a day that has just gone by,
or like a watch in the night.(B)
5 Yet you sweep people away(C) in the sleep of death—
they are like the new grass of the morning:
6 In the morning it springs up new,
but by evening it is dry and withered.(D)
7 We are consumed by your anger
and terrified by your indignation.
8 You have set our iniquities before you,
our secret sins(E) in the light of your presence.(F)
9 All our days pass away under your wrath;
we finish our years with a moan.(G)
10 Our days may come to seventy years,(H)
or eighty,(I) if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,(J)
for they quickly pass, and we fly away.(K)
