Nirv Parallel Bible with Kjvp for Numbers 14 1

1 That night all of the people in the community raised their voices. They sobbed out loud.

2 The people of Israel spoke against Moses and Aaron. The whole community said to them, "We wish we had died in Egypt or even in this desert.

3 Why is the Lord bringing us to this land? We're going to be killed with swords. Our enemies will capture our wives and children. Wouldn't it be better for us to go back to Egypt?"

4 They said to one another, "We should choose another leader. We should go back to Egypt."

5 Then Moses and Aaron fell with their faces to the ground. They did it in front of the whole community of Israel that was gathered there.

6 Joshua, the son of Nun, tore his clothes. So did Caleb, the son of Jephunneh. Joshua and Caleb were two of the men who had checked out the land.

7 They spoke to the whole community of Israel. They said, "We passed through the land and checked it out. It's very good.

8 If the Lord is pleased with us, he'll lead us into that land. It's a land that has plenty of milk and honey. He'll give it to us.

9 "But don't refuse to obey him. And don't be afraid of the people of the land. We will swallow them up. The Lord is with us. So nothing can save them. Don't be afraid of them."

10 But all of the people talked about killing Joshua and Caleb by throwing stones at them. Then the glory of the Lord appeared at the Tent of Meeting. All of the people of Israel saw it.

11 The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, "How long will these people make fun of me? How long will they refuse to believe in me? They refuse even though I have done many miraculous signs among them.

12 So I will strike them down with a plague. I will destroy them. But I will make you into a greater and stronger nation than they are."

13 Moses said to the Lord, "Then the Egyptians will hear about it. You used your power to bring these people up from among them.

14 "And the Egyptians will tell the people who live in Canaan about it. Lord, they have already heard a lot about you. They've heard that you are with these people. They've heard that you have been seen face to face. They've been told that your cloud stays over them. They've heard that you go in front of them in a pillar of cloud by day. They've been told that you go in front of them in a pillar of fire at night.

15 "Suppose you put these people to death all at one time. Then the nations who have heard those things about you will talk. They'll say,

16 "The Lord took an oath. He promised to give these people the land of Canaan. But he wasn't able to bring them into it. So he killed them in the desert.'

17 "Now, Lord, show your strength. You have said,

18 "I am the Lord. I am slow to get angry. I am full of love. I forgive those who sin. I forgive those who refuse to obey. But I do not let guilty people go without punishing them. I punish the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren for the sin of their parents.'

19 "Lord, your love is great. So forgive the sin of these people. Forgive them just as you have done from the time they left Egypt until now."

20 The Lord replied, "I have forgiven them, just as you asked.

21 You can be sure that I live. You can be sure that my glory fills the whole earth.

22 "And you can be just as sure that these men will not see the land I promised to give them. They have seen my glory. They have seen the miraculous signs I did in Egypt. And they have seen what I did in the desert. But they did not obey me. And they have put me to the test ten times.

23 So not even one of them will ever see the land I promised with an oath to give to their people of long ago. No one who has made fun of me will ever see it.

24 "But my servant Caleb has a different spirit. He follows me with his whole heart. So I will bring him into the land he went to. And his children after him will receive land there.

25 "The Amalekites and Canaanites are living in the valleys. So turn back tomorrow. Start out toward the desert. Go along the way that leads to the Red Sea."

26 The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron. He said,

27 "How long will this evil community speak against me? I have heard these Israelites talk about how unhappy they are.

28 So tell them, 'Here is what I, the Lord, am announcing. You can be sure that I live. And you can be just as sure that I will do to you the very things that I heard you say.

29 " 'You will die in this desert. Every one of you who is 20 years old or more will die. Every one of you who was counted in the list of the people will die. Every one of you who has spoken out against me will be wiped out.

30 I lifted up my hand and promised with an oath to make this land your home. But now not all of you will enter the land. Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter it. So will Joshua, the son of Nun. They are the only ones who will enter the land.

31 " 'You have said that your enemies would capture your children. But I will bring your children in to enjoy the land you have turned your backs on.

32 As for you, you will die in the desert.

33 Your children will be shepherds here for 40 years. They will suffer because you were not faithful. They will suffer until the last of your bodies lies here in the desert.

34 For 40 years you will suffer for your sins. That is one year for each of the 40 days you checked out the land. You will know what it is like to have me against you.'

35 "I, the Lord, have spoken. You can be sure that I will do those things to this whole evil community. They have joined together against me. They will meet their end in this desert. They will die here."

36 So the Lord struck down the men Moses had sent to check out the land. They had returned and had spread a bad report about the land. And that had made the whole community speak out against Moses.

37 Those men were to blame for spreading the bad report. So the Lord struck them down. They died of a plague.

38 Only two of the men who went to check out the land remained alive. One of them was Joshua, the son of Nun. The other was Caleb, the son of Jephunneh.

39 Moses reported to all of the people of Israel what the Lord had said. And they became very sad.

40 Early the next morning they went up toward the high hill country. "We have sinned," they said. "We will go up to the place the Lord promised to give us."

41 But Moses said, "Why aren't you obeying the Lord's command? You won't succeed.

42 So don't go up. The Lord isn't with you. Your enemies will win the battle over you.

43 The Amalekites and Canaanites will meet you on the field of battle. You have turned away from the Lord. So he won't be with you. And you will be killed with swords."

44 But they wouldn't listen. They still went up toward the high hill country. They went up even though Moses didn't move from the camp. They went even though the ark of the Lord's covenant didn't move from the camp.

45 Then the Amalekites and Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down. They attacked the people of Israel. They won the battle over them. They chased them all the way to Hormah.

1 And all ^H3605 ^NMS the congregation ^H5712 lifted up ^H5375 their voice ^H6963 ^CMS-3MP , and cried ^H5414 ; and the people ^H5971 wept ^H1058 ^W-VQY3MP that ^H1931 night ^H3915 .

2 And all ^H3605 ^NMS the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 murmured ^H3885 against ^H5921 ^PREP Moses ^H4872 and against ^H5921 ^PREP Aaron ^H175 : and the whole ^H3605 ^NMS congregation ^H5712 said ^H559 unto ^H413 ^PREP-3MS them , Would God that ^H3863 ^CONJ we had died ^H4191 in the land ^H776 ^B-GFS of Egypt ^H4714 ^EFS ! or ^H176 ^CONJ would God ^H3863 ^CONJ we had died ^H4191 in this ^H2088 ^D-PMS wilderness ^H4057 !

3 And wherefore ^H4100 hath the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS brought ^H935 ^VHPMS us unto ^H413 ^PREP this ^H2063 ^D-DFS land ^H776 ^D-GFS , to fall ^H5307 by the sword ^H2719 , that our wives ^H802 and our children ^H2945 should be ^H1961 ^VQY3MP a prey ^H957 ? were it not ^H3808 ^D-NPAR better ^H2896 ^AMS for us to return ^H7725 ^VQFC into Egypt ^H4714 ?

4 And they said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MP one ^H376 ^NMS to ^H413 ^PREP another ^H251 ^CMS-3MS , Let us make ^H5414 ^VNQ3FS a captain ^H7218 ^NMS , and let us return ^H7725 into Egypt ^H4714 .

5 Then Moses ^H4872 and Aaron ^H175 fell ^H5307 ^W-VQY3MS on ^H5921 ^PREP their faces ^H6440 ^L-CMP before ^H6440 ^L-CMP all ^H3605 ^NMS the assembly ^H6951 of the congregation ^H5712 ^CFS of the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 ^LMS .

6 And Joshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Nun ^H5126 , and Caleb ^H3612 the son ^H1121 of Jephunneh ^H3312 , which were of ^H4480 ^PREP them that searched ^H8446 the land ^H776 ^D-GFS , rent ^H7167 their clothes ^H899 :

7 And they spoke ^H559 ^W-VQY3MP unto ^H413 ^PREP all ^H3605 ^NMS the company ^H5712 ^CFS of the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC , The land ^H776 ^D-GFS , which ^H834 ^RPRO we passed through ^H5674 to search ^H8446 it , is an exceeding ^H3966 ^ADV good ^H2896 ^NFS land ^H776 ^D-GFS .

8 If ^H518 ^PART the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS delight ^H2654 in us , then he will bring ^H935 us into ^H413 ^PREP this ^H2063 ^D-DFS land ^H776 ^D-GFS , and give ^H5414 it us ; a land ^H776 ^GFS which ^H834 ^RPRO floweth ^H2100 with milk ^H2461 ^NMS and honey ^H1706 .

9 Only ^H389 ^ADV rebel ^H4775 not ^H408 ^NPAR ye against the LORD ^H3068 , neither ^H408 ^NPAR fear ^H3372 ye ^H859 ^W-PPRO-2MP the people ^H5971 ^NMS of the land ^H776 ^D-GFS ; for ^H3588 ^CONJ they ^H1992 ^PPRO-3MP are bread ^H3899 for us : their defense ^H6738 is departed ^H5493 from them , and the LORD ^H3068 ^W-EDS is with ^H854 ^PREP-1MP us : fear ^H3372 them not ^H408 ^NPAR .

10 But all ^H3605 ^NMS the congregation ^H5712 bade ^H559 stone ^H7275 them with stones ^H68 . And the glory ^H3519 of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS appeared ^H7200 in the tabernacle ^H168 of the congregation ^H4150 ^NMS before ^H413 ^PREP all ^H3605 ^NMS the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 ^LMS .

11 And the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS unto ^H413 ^PREP Moses ^H4872 , How long ^H5704 ^PREP will this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 provoke ^H5006 me ? and how long ^H5704 ^PREP will it be ere ^H3808 ^NADV they believe ^H539 ^VHY3MP me , for all ^H3605 the signs ^H226 which ^H834 ^RPRO I have showed ^H6213 ^VQQ1MS among ^H7130 ^B-CMS-3MS them ?

12 I will smite ^H5221 them with the pestilence ^H1698 , and disinherit ^H3423 them , and will make ^H6213 of thee a greater ^H1419 ^AMS nation ^H1471 ^L-NMS and mightier ^H6099 than ^H4480 ^M-PREP-3MS they .

13 And Moses ^H4872 said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS unto ^H413 ^PREP the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , Then the Egyptians ^H4714 shall hear ^H8085 it ^CONJ , ( ^CONJ for ^CONJ thou broughtest up ^H5927 this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 in thy might ^H3581 from among ^H7130 them ; )

14 And they will tell ^H559 ^W-VQQ3MP it to ^H413 ^PREP the inhabitants ^H3427 ^VQPMS of this ^H2063 ^D-DFS land ^H776 ^D-GFS : for they have heard ^H8085 ^VQQ3MP that ^H3588 ^CONJ thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS LORD ^H3068 ^EDS art among ^H7130 this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 , that ^H834 ^RPRO thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS LORD ^H3068 ^EDS art seen ^H7200 face ^H5869 ^NMS to face ^H5869 , and that thy cloud ^H6051 standeth ^H5975 over ^H5921 them , and that thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS goest ^H1980 before ^H6440 ^L-CMP-3MP them , by day time ^H3119 ^ADV in a pillar ^H5982 of a cloud ^H6051 ^NMS , and in a pillar ^H5982 of fire ^H784 ^CMS by night ^H3915 ^NMS .

15 Now if thou shalt kill ^H4191 all this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 as one ^H259 ^MMS man ^H376 , then the nations ^H1471 ^D-NMP which ^H834 ^RPRO have heard ^H8085 ^VQQ3MP the fame ^H8088 of thee will speak ^H559 , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC ,

16 Because ^H1115 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS was not able ^H3201 to bring ^H935 ^L-VHFC this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 into ^H413 ^PREP the land ^H776 ^D-GFS which ^H834 ^RPRO he swore ^H7650 unto them therefore he hath slain ^H7819 them in the wilderness ^H4057 .

17 And now ^H6258 ^W-ADV , I beseech thee ^H4994 ^IJEC , let the power ^H3581 ^CMS of my Lord ^H136 ^EDS be great ^H1431 , according as ^H834 ^K-RPRO thou hast spoken ^H1696 , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC ,

18 The LORD ^H3068 ^EDS is longsuffering ^H750 ^JMS , and of great ^H7227 ^W-JMS mercy ^H2617 ^NMS , forgiving ^H5375 iniquity ^H5771 ^NMS and transgression ^H6588 , and by no means clearing ^H5352 the guilty , visiting ^H6485 the iniquity ^H5771 of the fathers ^H1 upon ^H5921 ^PREP the children ^H1121 ^NMP unto ^H5921 ^PREP the third ^H8029 and fourth ^H7256 generation .

19 Pardon ^H5545 , I beseech thee ^H4994 ^IJEC , the iniquity ^H5771 of this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 according unto the greatness ^H1433 of thy mercy ^H2617 , and as ^H834 thou hast forgiven ^H5375 this ^H2088 ^D-PMS people ^H5971 , from Egypt ^H4714 ^M-TFS even until ^H5704 ^W-PREP now ^H2008 .

20 And the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , I have pardoned ^H5545 according to thy word ^H1697 :

21 But as truly ^H199 ^W-CONJ as I ^H589 ^PPRO-1MS live ^H2416 ^AMS , all ^H3605 ^NMS the earth ^H776 ^D-GFS shall be filled ^H4390 with the glory ^H3519 of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS .

23 Surely ^H518 ^PART they shall not see ^H7200 ^VQY3MP the land ^H776 ^D-GFS which ^H834 ^RPRO I swore ^H7650 unto their fathers ^H1 , neither ^H3808 ^NADV shall any ^H3605 ^W-CMS of them that provoked ^H5006 me see ^H7200 it :

24 But my servant ^H5650 Caleb ^H3612 , because ^H6118 he had ^H1961 ^VQP3FS another ^H312 spirit ^H7307 ^NFS with ^H5973 ^PREP-3MS him , and hath followed me fully ^H4390 , him will I bring ^H935 into ^H413 ^PREP the land ^H776 ^D-GFS whereinto ^H834 ^RPRO he went ^H935 ^VQPMS ; and his seed ^H2233 shall possess ^H3423 it .

25 (Now the Amalekites ^H6003 and the Canaanites ^H3669 ^WD-EMS dwelt ^H3427 ^VQPMS in the valley ^H6010 . ) Tomorrow ^H4279 ^NMS turn ^H6437 ^VQI2MP you , and get ^H5265 you into the wilderness ^H4057 ^D-NMS by the way ^H1870 ^NMS of the Red ^H5488 sea ^H3220 .

26 And the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS spoke ^H1696 ^W-VPY3MS unto ^H413 ^PREP Moses ^H4872 and unto ^H413 ^PREP Aaron ^H175 saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC ,

27 How long ^H5704 ^PREP shall I bear with this ^H2063 ^D-DFS evil ^H7451 ^D-AFS congregation ^H5712 , which ^H834 ^RPRO murmur ^H3885 against ^H5921 me ?

28 Say ^H559 unto ^H413 ^PREP-3MS them , As truly as I ^H589 ^PPRO-1MS live ^H2416 ^AMS , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , as ^H834 ^K-RPRO ye have spoken ^H1696 in mine ears ^H241 , so ^H3651 ^ADV will I do ^H6213 ^VQY1MS to you :

29 Your carcasses ^H6297 shall fall ^H5307 in this ^H2088 ^D-PMS wilderness ^H4057 ; and all ^H3605 ^W-CMS that were numbered ^H6485 of you , according to your whole ^H3605 ^L-CMS number ^H4557 , from twenty ^H6242 years ^H8141 ^NFS old ^H1121 and upward ^H4605 , which ^H834 ^RPRO have murmured ^H3885 against ^H5921 me ,

30 Doubtless ^H518 ^PART ye ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS shall not come ^H935 into ^H413 ^PREP the land ^H776 ^D-GFS , concerning which ^H834 ^RPRO I swore ^H5375 ^VQQ1MS to make you dwell ^H7931 therein , save ^H518 ^PART Caleb ^H3612 the son ^H1121 of Jephunneh ^H3312 , and Joshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Nun ^H5126 .

31 But your little ones ^H2945 , which ^H834 ^RPRO ye said ^H559 should be ^H1961 ^VQY3MS a prey ^H957 , them will I bring in ^H935 , and they shall know ^H3045 the land ^H776 ^D-GFS which ^H834 ^RPRO ye have despised ^H3988 .

32 But as for you ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS , your carcasses ^H6297 , they shall fall ^H5307 in this ^H2088 ^D-PMS wilderness ^H4057 .

33 And your children ^H1121 shall wander ^H7462 in the wilderness ^H4057 forty ^H705 ^MMP years ^H8141 ^NFS , and bear ^H5375 your whoredoms ^H2184 , until ^H5704 ^PREP your carcasses ^H6297 be wasted ^H8552 in the wilderness ^H4057 .

34 After the number ^H4557 ^B-CMS of the days ^H3117 ^NUM-MS in which ^H834 ^RPRO ye searched ^H8446 the land ^H776 ^D-GFS , even forty ^H705 ^MMP days ^H3117 ^NMS , each day for a year ^H3117 ^NMS , shall ye bear ^H5375 your iniquities ^H5771 , even forty ^H705 ^MMP years ^H8141 , and ye shall know ^H3045 my breach of promise ^H8569 .

35 I ^H589 ^PPRO-1MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS have said ^H1696 ^VPQ1MS , I will surely ^H518 ^PART do ^H6213 it ^H2063 ^DPRO unto all ^H3605 ^L-CMS this ^H2063 ^D-DFS evil ^H7451 ^D-AFS congregation ^H5712 , that are gathered together ^H3259 against ^H5921 me : in this ^H2088 ^D-PMS wilderness ^H4057 they shall be consumed ^H8552 , and there ^H8033 ^W-ADV they shall die ^H4191 .

37 Even those men ^H376 that did bring up ^H3318 the evil ^H7451 ^AFS report ^H1681 upon the land ^H776 ^D-GFS , died ^H4191 by the plague ^H4046 before ^H6440 ^L-CMP the LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS .

38 But Joshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Nun ^H5126 , and Caleb ^H3612 the son ^H1121 of Jephunneh ^H3312 , which were of ^H4480 ^PREP the men ^H376 ^D-NMP that went ^H1980 to search ^H8446 the land ^H776 ^D-GFS , lived ^H2421 still .

39 And Moses ^H4872 told ^H1696 ^W-VPY3MS these ^H428 ^D-DPRO-3MP sayings ^H1697 ^AMP unto ^H413 ^PREP all ^H3605 ^NMS the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 : and the people ^H5971 mourned ^H56 greatly ^H3966 ^ADV .

40 And they rose up early ^H7925 in the morning ^H1242 , and got them up ^H5927 into ^H413 ^PREP the top ^H7218 ^NMS of the mountain ^H2022 , saying ^H559 ^L-VQFC , Lo ^H2009 , we be here , and will go up ^H5927 unto ^H413 ^PREP the place ^H4725 ^D-NMS which ^H834 ^RPRO the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS hath promised ^H559 ^VQQ3MS : for ^H3588 ^CONJ we have sinned ^H2398 .

41 And Moses ^H4872 said ^H559 ^W-VQY3MS , Wherefore ^H4100 ^L-IPRO now ^H2088 ^PMS do ye ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS transgress ^H5674 the commandment ^H6310 of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ? but it ^H1931 shall not ^H3808 ^NADV prosper ^H6743 .

43 For ^H3588 ^CONJ the Amalekites ^H6003 ^D-TMS and the Canaanites ^H3669 are there ^H8033 ^ADV before ^H6440 you , and ye shall fall ^H5307 by the sword ^H2719 : because ^H5921 ^PREP ye are turned away ^H7725 from the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , therefore the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS will not ^H3808 ^W-NPAR be ^H1961 ^VQY3MS with ^H5973 you .

44 But they presumed ^H6075 to go up ^H5927 ^L-VQFC unto ^H413 ^PREP the hill ^H2022 top ^H7218 ^NMS : nevertheless the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 ^NFS of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , and Moses ^H4872 , departed ^H4185 not ^H3808 ^NADV out of the camp ^H4264 .

45 Then the Amalekites ^H6003 ^D-TMS came down ^H3381 ^W-VQY3MS , and the Canaanites ^H3669 ^WD-EMS which dwelt ^H3427 ^D-VQPMS in that ^H1931 ^D-PPRO-3MS hill ^H2022 , and smote ^H5221 them , and discomfited ^H3807 them , even unto ^H5704 ^PREP Hormah ^H2767 .
