King James Version
Numbers 32:6-15
King James Version
6 And Moses said unto the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?
7 And wherefore discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the Lord hath given them?
8 Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadeshbarnea to see the land.
9 For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the Lord had given them.
10 And the Lord'S anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying,
11 Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:
12 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the Lord.
13 And the Lord'S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done evil in the sight of the Lord, was consumed.
14 And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the Lord toward Israel.
15 For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and ye shall destroy all this people.

Numbers 32:6-15
New International Version
6 Moses said to the Gadites and Reubenites, “Should your fellow Israelites go to war while you sit here? 7 Why do you discourage the Israelites from crossing over into the land the Lord has given them?(A) 8 This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh Barnea to look over the land.(B) 9 After they went up to the Valley of Eshkol(C) and viewed the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land the Lord had given them. 10 The Lord’s anger was aroused(D) that day and he swore this oath:(E) 11 ‘Because they have not followed me wholeheartedly, not one of those who were twenty years old or more(F) when they came up out of Egypt(G) will see the land I promised on oath(H) to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob(I)— 12 not one except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, for they followed the Lord wholeheartedly.’(J) 13 The Lord’s anger burned against Israel(K) and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the whole generation of those who had done evil in his sight was gone.(L)
14 “And here you are, a brood of sinners, standing in the place of your fathers and making the Lord even more angry with Israel.(M) 15 If you turn away from following him, he will again leave all this people in the wilderness, and you will be the cause of their destruction.(N)”
