22. But because all the men who have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the desert yet tested me these ten times and did not listen to my voice,
23. they will not see the land that I swore by oath to their ancestors, and all those who despised me will not see it.
24. But my servant Caleb, because another spirit was with him, he remained true after me, and I will bring him into the land that he entered, and his offspring will take possession of it.
25. And the Amalekites and the Canaanites live in the valleys; tomorrow turn and set out for the desert by way of the Red Sea.”
26. And Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
27. “How long will I bear this evil community who are grumbling against me? I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites which they are making against me.
28. Say to them, ‘Surely as I live,’ declares Yahweh, ‘just as you spoke in my hearing, so I will do to you;
29. in this desert your corpses will fall, and all your counted ones, according to all your number, from twenty years old and above who grumbled against me.
30. You yourselves will not come into the land that I swore by oath to make you to dwell in it, but Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
31. But your little children, whom you said would be plunder, I will bring them, and they will know the land that you rejected.
32. But for you, all your corpses will fall in this desert.
33. And your children will be shepherds in the desert forty years, and you will bear your unfaithfulness until all your corpses have fallen in the desert.
