38 Josué, fils de Nun, et Caleb, fils de Jephunné, restèrent seuls vivants parmi ces hommes qui étaient allés pour explorer le pays.

39 Moïse rapporta ces choses à tous les enfants d’Israël, et le peuple fut dans une grande désolation.

40 Ils se levèrent de bon matin, et montèrent au sommet de la montagne, en disant: Nous voici! Nous monterons au lieu dont a parlé l’Éternel, car nous avons péché.

41 Moïse dit: Pourquoi transgressez-vous l’ordre de l’Éternel? Cela ne réussira point.
