New International Version NIV
26 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron:
26
The LORD said to Moses and Aaron:
27 "How long [must I endure] this evil community that keeps complaining about Me? I have heard the Israelites' complaints that they make against Me.
27
“How long will this wicked community grumble against me? I have heard the complaints of these grumbling Israelites.
28 Tell them: As surely as I live, declares the Lord, I will do to you exactly as I heard you say.
28
So tell them, ‘As surely as I live, declares the LORD, I will do to you the very thing I heard you say:
29 Your corpses will fall in this wilderness-all of you who were registered [in the census], the entire number of you 20 years old or more-because you have complained about Me.
29
In this wilderness your bodies will fall—every one of you twenty years old or more who was counted in the census and who has grumbled against me.
30 I swear that none of you will enter the land I promised to settle you in, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
30
Not one of you will enter the land I swore with uplifted hand to make your home, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
31 I will bring your children whom you said would become plunder into the land you rejected, and they will enjoy it.
31
As for your children that you said would be taken as plunder, I will bring them in to enjoy the land you have rejected.
32 But as for you, your corpses will fall in this wilderness.
32
But as for you, your bodies will fall in this wilderness.
33 Your children will be shepherds in the wilderness for 40 years and bear the penalty for your acts of unfaithfulness until all your corpses lie [scattered] in the wilderness.
33
Your children will be shepherds here for forty years, suffering for your unfaithfulness, until the last of your bodies lies in the wilderness.
34 You will bear the consequences of your sins 40 years based on the number of the 40 days that you scouted the land, a year for each day. You will know My displeasure.
34
For forty years—one year for each of the forty days you explored the land—you will suffer for your sins and know what it is like to have me against you.’
