27. How long shall I hear this evil congregation, which murmurs against me, the complaints of the sons of Israel, which they murmur against me?
28. Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, according as ye have spoken in my ears, so will I do to you.
29. Your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness, all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, who have murmured against me;
30. doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I swore to make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.
31. But your little ones, whom ye said should be a prey, I will bring them in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.
32. But as for you, your carcasses, they shall fall in this wilderness.
33. And your children shall be shepherded in the wilderness forty years and bear your fornications until your carcasses are wasted in the wilderness.
34. After the number of the days in which ye spied out the land, even forty days, each day for a year, ye shall bear your iniquities forty years, and ye shall know my reason for annulling my promise.
