Forty years long was I grieved with that generation, And said, It is a people that do err in their heart, And they have not known my ways:
Speak, Thus saith the LORD, The carcases of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.
because all those men which have seen my glory, and my signs, which I wrought in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have tempted me these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;
Say unto them, As I live, saith the LORD, surely as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against me,
even those men that did bring up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
Now I desire to put you in remembrance, though ye know all things once for all, how that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
