<>children, <>Israel, <>murmured, <>Moses, <>Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt!, <>Would God … would God, <>died … died, <>would God we had died in this wilderness!

3 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

<>wives, <>children, <>were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.

12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they.

<>I will smite them with the pestilence, <>mightier

13 And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy might from among them;)

14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for they have heard that thou LORD art among this people, that thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.

22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;

<>tempted me, <>have not hearkened to my voice

23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:

<>the land which I sware unto their fathers

24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

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

<>as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you

29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against me,

30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

<>despised

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

33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.

<>we have sinned

41 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper.

<>Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper., <>prosper

42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies.

43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you.
