Numbers 14:36

³⁴According to the number of the days during which ye spied the land, forty days, a day for a year, ye shall bear your sins forty years, and ye shall know my fierce anger.

³⁵I the Lord have spoken, Surely will I do thus to this evil congregation that has risen up together against me: in this wilderness they shall be utterly consumed, and there they shall die.

— Numbers 14:36 —

³⁷the men that spoke evil reports against the land, even died of the plague before the Lord.

³⁸And Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh still lived of those men that went to spy out the land.
