19. Now, show your great love to these people. Forgive their sin. Forgive them the same way you have been forgiving them since the time they left Egypt until now.”
20. The Lord answered, “Yes, I will forgive the people as you asked.
21. But I tell you the truth. As surely as I live and as surely as the Glory of the Lord fills the whole earth, I make you this promise:
22. None of the people I led out of Egypt will ever see the land of Canaan. They saw my glory and the great signs that I did in Egypt and in the desert. But they disobeyed me and tested me ten times.
23. I promised their ancestors that I would give them that land. But none of those people who turned against me will ever enter that land!
24. But my servant Caleb was different. He follows me completely. So I will bring him into the land that he has already seen, and his people will get that land.
