NU-14:1 And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and
cried; and the
people wept that night.
NU-14:2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses
and against
Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that
we had died
in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this
wilderness!
NU-14:3 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land,
to fall by the
sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it
not better
for us to return into Egypt?
NU-14:4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain,
and let us
return into Egypt.
NU-14:5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the
assembly of
the congregation of the children of Israel.
NU-14:6 And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of
Jephunneh, [which
were] of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
NU-14:7 And they spake unto all the company of the children of
Israel,
saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, [is] an
exceeding good
land.
NU-14:8 If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into
this land, and
give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.
NU-14:9 Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the
people of the
land; for they [are] bread for us: their defence is departed
from them, and
the LORD [is] with us: fear them not.
NU-14:10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones.
And the glory
of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the congregation
before all the
children of Israel.
NU-14:11 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this
people provoke me?
and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs
which I have
showed among them?
NU-14:12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit
them, and will
make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.
NU-14:13 And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall
hear [it],
(for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;
)
NU-14:14 And they will tell [it] to the inhabitants of this
land: [for] they
have heard that thou LORD [art] among this people, that thou
LORD art seen
face to face, and [that] thy cloud standeth over them, and
[that] thou goest
before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar
of fire by
night.
NU-14:15 Now [if] thou shalt kill [all] this people as one man,
then the
nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
NU-14:16 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people
into the land
which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the
wilderness.
NU-14:17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my LORD be
great,
according as thou hast spoken, saying,
NU-14:18 The LORD [is] longsuffering, and of great mercy,
forgiving iniquity
and transgression, and by no means clearing [the guilty],
visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and
fourth
[generation].
NU-14:19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people
according unto
the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven this
people, from Egypt
even until now.
NU-14:20 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy
word:
NU-14:21 But [as] truly [as] I live, all the earth shall be
filled with the
glory of the LORD.
NU-14:22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my
miracles,
which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me
now these ten
times, and have not hearkened to my voice;
NU-14:23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto
their fathers,
neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
NU-14:24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit
with him, and
hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto
he went; and
his seed shall possess it.
NU-14:25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the
valley.) To
morrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way of
the Red sea.
NU-14:26 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
NU-14:27 How long [shall I bear with] this evil congregation,
which murmur
against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of
Israel, which they
murmur against me.
NU-14:28 Say unto them, [As truly as] I live, saith the LORD,
as ye have
spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
NU-14:29 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,
NU-14:30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land,
[concerning] which I
sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh,
and Joshua
the son of Nun.
