Numbers 14:25

Red Sea

23 not one will ever see the land that I swore to give their fathers. None of those who have treated Me with contempt will see it.

24 But because My servant Caleb has a different spirit and has followed Me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he has entered, and his descendants will inherit it.

Now since the Amalekites and Canaanites are living in the valleys, turn back tomorrow and head for the wilderness along the route to the Red Sea.”

26 Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

27 “How long will this wicked congregation grumble against Me? I have heard the complaints that the Israelites are making against Me.
