NASB
"But Moses said, "Why then are you transgressing the commandment of the LORD, when it will not succeed?"
— Numbers 14:41, NASB
“And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the Lord? but it shall not prosper.”
“And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of Jehovah, seeing it shall not prosper? ”
“Moses said, "Why now do you disobey the commandment of Yahweh, since it shall not prosper?”
“But Moses said,“Why are you now transgressing the commandment of the LORD? It will not succeed!”
“And Moses said to them: Why transgress you the word of the Lord, which shall not succeed prosperously with you?”
“And Moses said, Why are you now acting against the Lord's order, seeing that no good will come of it?”
“And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the Lord? but it shall not prosper.”
But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive out of those men who went to spy out the land.
When Moses spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, the people mourned greatly.
In the morning, however, they rose up early and went up to the ridge of the hill country, saying, "Here we are; we have indeed sinned, but we will go up to the place which the LORD has promised."
But Moses said, "Why then are you transgressing the commandment of the LORD, when it will not succeed?
"Do not go up, or you will be struck down before your enemies, for the LORD is not among you.
"For the Amalekites and the Canaanites will be there in front of you, and you will fall by the sword, inasmuch as you have turned back from following the LORD. And the LORD will not be with you."
But they went up heedlessly to the ridge of the hill country; neither the ark of the covenant of the LORD nor Moses left the camp.
