26 The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 27 “How long shall I bear with this evil congregation who are ^agrumbling against Me? I have heard the complaints of the sons of Israel, which they are ^{▼▼ Lit complaining}making against Me. 28 “Say to them, ‘ ^cAs I live,’ says the Lord, ‘just as ^dyou have spoken in My hearing, so I will surely do to you; 29 ^eyour corpses will fall in this wilderness, even all ^fyour ^{▼▼ Lit mustered}numbered men, according to your complete number from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against Me. 30 ‘Surely you shall not come into the land in which I ^{▼▼ Lit raised My hand}swore to settle you, ⁱexcept Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun. 31 ‘ ^jYour children, however, whom you said would become a prey— I will bring them in, and they will know the land which you have rejected. 32 ‘ ^kBut as for you, your corpses will fall in this wilderness. 33 ‘Your sons shall be shepherds for ^lforty years in the wilderness, and they will ^{▼▼ Lit bear}suffer for your ^{▼▼ Lit fornications}unfaithfulness, until your corpses ^{▼▼ Lit are finished}lie in the wilderness. 34 ‘According to the ^pnumber of days which you spied out the land, forty days, for every day you shall bear your ^{▼▼ Or iniquities}guilt a year, even forty years, and you will know My opposition. 35 ‘ ^rI, the Lord, have spoken, surely this I will do to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. In this wilderness they shall be destroyed, and there they will die.’”
