29 (A)your dead bodies will fall in this wilderness, all (B)your [a]numbered men according to your complete number from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against Me. 30 By no means will you come into the land where I [b]swore to settle you, (C)except for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun. 31 (D)Your children, however, whom you said would become plunder—I will bring them in, and they will know the land which you have rejected. 32 (E)But as for you, your dead bodies will fall in this wilderness. 33 Also, your sons will be shepherds in the wilderness for (F)forty years, and they will [c]suffer for your unfaithfulness, until your bodies perish in the wilderness. 34 In accordance with the (G)number of days that you spied out the land, forty days, for every day you shall suffer the punishment for your [d]guilt a year, that is, forty years, and you will know My opposition. 35 (H)I, the Lord, have spoken, I certainly will do this to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. They shall be worn out in this wilderness, and there they shall die.’”

29 In this wilderness your bodies will fall(A)—every one of you twenty years old or more(B) who was counted in the census(C) and who has grumbled against me. 30 Not one of you will enter the land(D) I swore with uplifted hand(E) to make your home, except Caleb son of Jephunneh(F) and Joshua son of Nun.(G) 31 As for your children that you said would be taken as plunder, I will bring them in to enjoy the land you have rejected.(H) 32 But as for you, your bodies will fall(I) in this wilderness. 33 Your children will be shepherds here for forty years,(J) suffering for your unfaithfulness, until the last of your bodies lies in the wilderness. 34 For forty years(K)—one year for each of the forty days you explored the land(L)—you will suffer for your sins and know what it is like to have me against you.’ 35 I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will surely do these things(M) to this whole wicked community, which has banded together against me. They will meet their end in this wilderness; here they will die.(N)
