Numbers 32:13-15
32:13 So the Lord’s anger was kindled against the Israelites, and he made them wander in the wilderness for forty years, until all that generation that had done wickedly before the Lord was finished.
32:14 Now look, you are standing in your fathers’ place, a brood of sinners, to increase still further the fierce wrath of the Lord against the Israelites.
32:15 For if you turn away from following him, he will once again abandon them in the wilderness, and you will be the reason for their destruction.”
