Numbers 14:28–35

²⁸say unto them, I live—an affirmation of Jehovah—if, as ye have spoken in Mine ears—so I do not to you; ²⁹in this wilderness do your carcases fall, even all your numbered ones, to all your number, from a son of twenty years and upward, who have murmured against Me; ³⁰ye—ye come not in unto the land which I have lifted up My hand to cause you to tabernacle in it, except Caleb son of Jephunneh, and Joshua son of Nun.

³¹‘As to your infants—of whom ye have said, A spoil they are become—I have even brought them in, and they have known the land which ye have kicked against; ³²as to you—your carcases do fall in this wilderness, ³³and your sons are evil in the wilderness forty years, and have borne your whoredoms till your carcases are consumed in the wilderness; ³⁴by the number of the days in which ye spied the land, forty days,—a day for a year, a day for a year—ye do bear your iniquities, forty years, and ye have known my breaking off; ³⁵I am Jehovah, I have spoken; if I do not this to all this evil company who are meeting against me;—in this wilderness they are consumed, and there they die.’
