26. Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
27. “How long must I put up with this wicked community that keeps complaining about me? I’ve heard the complaints the Israelites are making about me.
28. So tell them, ‘As I live, declares the Lord, I solemnly swear I will do everything to you that you said I would do.
29. Your bodies will drop dead in this desert. All of you who are at least 20 years old, who were registered and listed, and who complained about me will die.
30. I raised my hand and swore an oath to give you this land to live in. But none of you will enter it except Caleb (son of Jephunneh) and Joshua (son of Nun).
