Numbers 14:33-35

New American Standard Bible

³³ Also, your sons will be shepherds in the wilderness for ^(A)forty years, and they will ^[a]suffer for your unfaithfulness, until your bodies perish in the wilderness. ³⁴ In accordance with the ^(B)number of days that you spied out the land, forty days, for every day you shall suffer the punishment for your ^[b]guilt a year, that is, forty years, and you will know My opposition. ^35 (C)I, the Lord, have spoken, I certainly will do this to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. They shall be worn out in this wilderness, and there they shall die.’”
