Because all these men, having seen my glory and the signs which I have done in Egypt and in the waste land, still have put me to the test ten times, and have not given ear to my voice;

They will not see the land about which I made an oath to their fathers; not one of these by whom I have not been honoured will see it.

But my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit in him, and has been true to me with all his heart, him I will take into that land into which he went, and his seed will have it for their heritage.

Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites are in the valley; tomorrow, turning round, go into the waste land by the way to the Red Sea.

How long am I to put up with this evil people and their outcries against me? The words which they say against me have come to my ears.
