36The men, whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up an evil report against the land,
37even those men who did bring up an evil report of the land, died by the plague before Yahweh.
38But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, remained alive of those men who went to spy out the land.
39Moses told these words to all the children of Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
40They rose up early in the morning, and got them up to the top of the mountain, saying, Behold, we are here, and will go up to the place which Yahweh has promised: for we have sinned.
41Moses said, Why now do you disobey the commandment of Yahweh, seeing it shall not prosper?
42Don`t go up, for Yahweh isn`t among you; that you not be struck down before your enemies.
