36 aexcept Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him and his children I am giving the land on which he walked, because bhe wholly followed the Lord.’
37 aThe Lord was also angry with me for your sakes, saying, ‘Even you shall not go in there.
38 aJoshua the son of Nun, bwho stands before you, he shall go in there. cEncourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
39 a‘Moreover your little ones and your children, who byou say will be victims, who today chave no knowledge of good and evil, they shall go in there; to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.
40 aBut as for you, turn and take your journey into the wilderness by the Way of the Red Sea.’
41 “Then you answered and said to me, a‘We have sinned against the Lord; we will go up and fight, just as the Lord our God commanded us.’ And when everyone of you had girded on his weapons of war, you were ready to go up into the mountain.
