Hebrews 3:9Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895Wherewith your fathers tempted me by proving me, And saw my works forty years. See the chapter |
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the nation, even the men of war which came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD: unto whom the LORD sware that he would not let them see the land which the LORD sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
