6 And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben: “Shall your brethren go to war while you sit here?
7 Now why will you adiscourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord has given them?
8 Thus your fathers did awhen I sent them away from Kadesh Barnea bto see the land.
9 For awhen they went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, so that they did not go into the land which the Lord had given them.
10 aSo the Lord’s anger was aroused on that day, and He swore an oath, saying,
11 ‘Surely none of the men who came up from Egypt, afrom twenty years old and above, shall see the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because bthey have not wholly followed Me,
12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, afor they have wholly followed the Lord.’
13 So the Lord’s anger was aroused against Israel, and He made them awander in the wilderness forty years, until ball the generation that had done evil in the sight of the Lord was gone.
14 And look! You have risen in your fathers’ place, a brood of sinful men, to increase still more the afierce anger of the Lord against Israel.
15 For if you aturn away from following Him, He will once again leave them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people.”
