Bamidbar 32:7-13 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. And why discourage ye the lev Bnei Yisroel from going over into HaAretz which Hashem hath given them?

8. Thus did Avoteichem, when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to look over HaAretz.

9. For when they went up unto the Eshcol Valley, and saw HaAretz, they discouraged the lev Bnei Yisroel, that they should not go into HaAretz which Hashem had given them.

10. And the Af Hashem was kindled on that day, and He swore, saying,

11. Surely none of the anashim that came up out of Mitzrayim, from twenty years old and upward, shall see HaAdamah which I swore unto Avraham, unto Yitzchak, and unto Ya'akov; because they have not fully followed Me;

12. Except Kalev Ben Yephunneh the Kenezi, and Yehoshua Ben Nun; for they have fully followed after Hashem.

13. And the Af Hashem was kindled against Yisroel, and He made them wander in the midbar arba'im shanah, until kol hador that had done harah in the sight of Hashem, were consumed.
