³³ Your children will be shepherds in the wilderness for 40 years and bear the penalty for your acts of unfaithfulness until all your corpses lie scattered in the wilderness. ³⁴ You will bear the consequences of your sins 40 years based on the number of the 40 days that you scouted the land, a year for each day.^[a](A) You will know My displeasure.^{[b] 35} I, Yahweh, have spoken. I swear that I will do this to the entire evil community that has conspired against Me.^(B) They will come to an end in the wilderness, and there they will die.”^(C)
