New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Numbers 14
38 But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive out of those men who went to spy out the land.
39 When Moses spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, the people mourned greatly.
40 In the morning, however, they rose up early and went up to the ridge of the hill country, saying, "Here we are; we have indeed sinned, but we will go up to the place which the Lord has promised."
41 But Moses said, "Why then are you transgressing the commandment of the Lord, when it will not succeed?
42 Do not go up, or you will be struck down before your enemies, for the Lord is not among you.
43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites will be there in front of you, and you will fall by the sword, inasmuch as you have turned back from following the Lord. And the Lord will not be with you."
44 But they went up heedlessly to the ridge of the hill country; neither the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses left the camp.
45 Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down, and struck them and beat them down as far as Hormah.
Numbers 15
1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 "Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ’When you enter the land where you are to live, which I am giving you,
3 then make an offering by fire to the Lord, a burnt offering or a sacrifice to fulfill a special vow, or as a freewill offering or in your appointed times, to make a soothing aroma to the Lord, from the herd or from the flock.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
