Not one will come into the land which I gave my word you would have for your resting-place, but only Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun.

But as for you, your dead bodies will be stretched in this waste land.

And your children will be wanderers in the waste land for forty years, undergoing punishment for your false ways, till your bodies become dust in the waste land.

And as you went through the land viewing it for forty days, so for forty years, a year for every day, you will undergo punishment for your wrongdoing, and you will see that I am against you.

And early in the morning they got up and went to the top of the mountain, saying, We are here and we will go up to the place which the Lord said he would give us: for we have done wrong.

Go not up, for the Lord is not with you, and you will be overcome by those who are fighting against you.

For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you will be put to death by their swords: because you have gone back from the way of the Lord, the Lord will not be with you.

Say to the children of Israel, When you have come into the land which I am giving to you for your resting-place,

And are going to make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burned offering or an offering in connection with an oath, or an offering freely given, or at your regular feasts, an offering for a sweet smell to the Lord, from the herd or the flock:

And for the drink offering, you are to give with the burned offering or other offering, the fourth part of a hin of wine for every lamb.

Or for a male sheep, give as a meal offering two tenth parts of a measure of the best meal mixed with a third part of a hin of oil:

And for the drink offering give a third part of a hin of wine, for a sweet smell to the Lord.

And when you make ready a young ox for a burned or other offering, or for the effecting of an oath, or for peace-offerings to the Lord:

And for the drink offering: give half a hin of wine, for an offering made by fire for a sweet smell to the Lord.

This is to be done for every young ox and for every male sheep or he-lamb or young goat.

Whatever number you make ready, so you are to do for every one.

There is to be one law for you and for the man of another country living with you, one law for ever from generation to generation; as you are, so is he to be before the Lord.

The law and the rule are to be the same for you and for those from other lands living with you.

Then, when you take for your food the produce of the land, you are to give an offering lifted up before the Lord.

Of the first of your rough meal you are to give a cake for a lifted offering, lifting it up before the Lord as the offering of the grain-floor is lifted up.
