TSK · Numbers 26:65

¶ And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, beside children.

Say unto them, [As truly as] I live, saith the LORD, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:

But [as for] you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness.

But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, [which were] of the men that went to search the land, lived [still].

And the space in which we came from Kadeshbarnea, until we were come over the brook Zered, [was] thirty and eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were wasted out from among the host, as the LORD sware unto them.

And this [is] the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, [that were] males, [even] all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.

For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in [his] goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

But with whom was he grieved forty years? [was it] not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
