New Testament

Numbers 14:30-34 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

30. not one of you shall enter the land where I solemnly swore to settle you, except Caleb, son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, son of Nun.

31. Your little ones, however, who you said would be taken as spoil, I will bring in, and they shall know the land you rejected.

32. But as for you, your bodies shall fall here in the wilderness,

33. while your children will wander for forty years, suffering for your infidelity, till the last of you lies dead in the wilderness.

34. Corresponding to the number of days you spent reconnoitering the land—forty days—you shall bear your punishment one year for each day: forty years. Thus you will realize what it means to oppose me.
