²⁰The Lord answered, “I will forgive them, as you have asked. ²¹^*But I promise that as surely as I live and as surely as my presence fills the earth, ²²^*none of these people will live to enter that land. They have seen the dazzling light of my presence and the miracles that I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness, but they have tried my patience over and over again and have refused to obey me. ²³^*They will never enter the land which I promised to their ancestors. None of those who have rejected me will ever enter it.
