Josué 5:6

6 Os israelitas tinham andado quarenta anos pelo deserto, até que todos os guerreiros que saíram do Egito morressem, visto que não tinham obedecido ao Senhor. Pois o Senhor lhes havia jurado que não veriam a terra que prometera aos seus antepassados que nos daria, terra onde manam leite e mel.

6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the nation, even the men of war that came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah: unto whom Jehovah sware that he would not let them see the land which Jehovah sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
