The LORD replied,
"I have forgiven them, as you asked. Nevertheless, as surely as I live
and as surely as the glory of the LORD fills the whole earth, not one of
those who saw my glory and the signs I performed in Egypt and in the
wilderness but who disobeyed me and tested me ten times--not one of them
will ever see the land I promised on oath to their ancestors. No one
who has treated me with contempt will ever see it."
