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 were wandering in the waste land for forty years, till all the nation, that is, all the fighting-men, who had come out of Egypt, were dead, because they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: to whom the Lord said, with an oath, that he would not let them see the land which the Lord had given his word to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
