25. Now the Amalekite and the Canaanite dwell in the valley: to-morrow turn ye, and get you into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.
26. And Jehovah spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
27. How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, that murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
28. Say unto them, As I live, saith Jehovah, surely as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
29. your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, that have murmured against me,
30. surely ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware that I would make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
31. But your little ones, that ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.
