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.
34. According to the number of the days that you explored the land, forty days, a day for each year, you will bear your sins forty years, and you will know my opposition.’
35. I, Yahweh, have spoken; I will surely do this to all this evil community who has banded together against me. In this desert they will come to an end, and there they will die.”
36. As for the men whom Moses sent to explore the land, who returned and made the community grumble against him by spreading a report over the land,
37. the men who spread the evil report of the land died by the plague before Yahweh.
