35 Not one of these men shall see that good land which I, with an oath, promised their fathers,
36 save Chaleb son of Jephonne. He shall see it. And to him I will give the land to which he went up, and to his children, because he vindicateth the cause of the Lord.
37 With me also the Lord was angry on your account, and said, Neither shalt thou go in there.
38 Joshua son of Nave who is thy attendant; he shall go thither. Encourage him, for he shall distribute it, by lot, to Israel.
39 And with respect to your children, who do not know good or evil, they shall go thither, and to them I will give it, and they shall inherit it.
40 But as for you, turn, and march into the wilderness, by the way to the Red sea.
41 Then you answered, and said, We have sinned before the Lord our God. We will go up, and fight according to all that the Lord our God commanded us. So, every one seizing his implements of war, you assembled tumultuously to go up the mountain.
42 Whereupon the Lord said to me, Say to them, You shall not go up, nor fight; for I am not with you. And you should not be trodden down before your enemies.
43 Accordingly I spoke to you; but you hearkened not to me; but transgressed the command of the Lord, and presumptuously ascended the mountain.
44 And the Amorites, who dwelt on the mountain, came out to meet you, and pursued you, as bees would do, and slaughtered you from Seir to Herma.
45 Then you sat down, and wept before the Lord our God; but the Lord hearkened not to your voice, nor paid attention to you. So you abode at Kades many days, as many as you had staid there before.
