But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD.

Num.14.21

But as I live and as the Glory of GOD fills the whole Earth--

Num.14.21

but truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD--

Num.14.21

But as surely as I live, and as surely as the earth is filled with the LORD's glory,

Num.14.22

Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice;

Num.14.22

not a single person of those who saw my Glory, saw the miracle signs I did in Egypt and the wilderness, and who have tested me over and over and over again, turning a deaf ear to me--

Num.14.22

not one of the men who saw my glory and the miraculous signs I performed in Egypt and in the desert but who disobeyed me and tested me ten times-

because all these men who have seen My glory and the signs which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have put Me to the test now these ten times, and have not heeded My voice,

Num.14.22

not one of these people will ever enter that land. They have seen my glorious presence and the miraculous signs I performed both in Egypt and in the wilderness, but again and again they tested me by refusing to listen.

Num.14.23

Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:

not one of them will set eyes on the land I so solemnly promised to their ancestors. No one who has treated me with such repeated contempt will see it.

Num.14.23

not one of them will ever see the land I promised on oath to their forefathers. No one who has treated me with contempt will ever see it.

Num.14.24

But My servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit in him and has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land where he went, and his descendants shall inherit it.
