Verse 6

For the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} walked{H1980}{(H8804)} forty{H705} years{H8141} in the wilderness{H4057}, till all the people{H1471} that were men{H582} of war{H4421}, which came out{H3318}{(H8802)} of Egypt{H4714}, were consumed{H8552}{(H8800)}, because they obeyed{H8085}{(H8804)} not the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}: unto whom the LORD{H3068} sware{H7650}{(H8738)} that he would not shew{H7200}{(H8687)} them the land{H776}, which the LORD{H3068} sware{H7650}{(H8738)} unto their fathers{H1} that he would give{H5414}{(H8800)} us, a land{H776} that floweth{H2100}{(H8802)} with milk{H2461} and honey{H1706}.
