“你们的埋怨惹耶和华发怒，祂起誓说，

“耶和华听见你们这话，就发怒，起誓说：

“耶和华听见你们的怨言，就发怒，起誓说：

“耶和华听见了你们说话的声音，就恼怒，起誓说：

「耶和華聽見你們這話，就發怒，起誓說：

“耶和華聽見了你們說話的聲音，就惱怒，起誓說：

『永恆主聽見了你們的話的語氣，就惱怒，便起誓說：

耶和華聞爾言、怒而誓曰、

耶和華聞爾言、震怒特甚、矢之曰、

主聞爾言、震怒而誓曰、

When the Lord heard what you said, he was angry and solemnly swore:

The Lord heard what you said. So he became angry. He made a promise. He said,

“ And the Lord heard your words and was angered, and he swore,

“ When the Lord heard your complaining, he became very angry. So he solemnly swore,

“ When the LORD heard your words, he grew angry and swore an oath:

“ Then the Lord heard the sound of your words, and He was angry and swore an oath, saying,

“ And the Lord heard the sound of your words, and was angry, and took an oath, saying,

And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,

“ When the Lord heard your words, He grew angry and swore an oath:

And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,

When the LORD heard you, he became angry and made this vow:

Yahweh heard the voice of your words and was angry, and swore, saying,

他们绝对看不到我起誓要赐给他们祖先的土地，藐视我的人都看不到那片土地。这些人见过我的荣耀，见过我在埃及和旷野所行的神迹，却仍然不听我的话，试探我十次之多。

不可心里顽固，像从前在旷野试探祂、悖逆祂一样。当时，你们的祖先试我、探我，观看我的作为达四十年之久。所以，我向那世代的人发怒，说，‘他们总是执迷不悟，不认识我的道路。’我就在愤怒中起誓说，‘他们绝不可进入我的安息。’”

因此我在怒中起誓说，‘他们绝不可进入我的安息！’”

从前我在加低斯·巴尼亚派你们的祖先去打探那地方的时候，他们就是这样。他们到以实各谷打探那地方，回来后竟动摇军心，使以色列人不敢进入耶和华所赐之地。那天耶和华发怒，起誓说，‘从埃及出来、二十岁以上的人都看不到我起誓要赐给亚伯拉罕、以撒和雅各的土地，因为他们没有全心全意地跟从我；只有基尼洗族耶孚尼的儿子迦勒和嫩的儿子约书亚可以看到，因为他们全心全意地跟从我。’耶和华向以色列人发怒，使他们在旷野漂泊了四十年，直到在耶和华面前作恶的那一代都死了。

我在旷野曾向他们发誓，不带他们进入我赐给他们的那奶蜜之乡，那世上最佳美的地方，

我们从离开加低斯·巴尼亚到穿过撒烈溪用了三十八年。期间，那一代战士都死光了，正如耶和华的誓言。其实是耶和华的手攻击他们，直到把他们从营中全部消灭。
