20:5 Why ¹  have you brought us up from Egypt only to bring us to ²  this dreadful place? It is no place for grain, or figs, or vines, or pomegranates; nor is there any water to drink!”

Numbers 32:13

32:13 So the Lord’s anger was kindled against the Israelites, and he made them wander in the wilderness for forty years, until all that generation that had done wickedly before ³  the Lord was finished. ⁴ 

[20:5]  ¹ tn Heb “and why.”

[20:5]  ² tn Here also the infinitive construct (Hiphil) forms the subordinate clause of the preceding interrogative clause.

[32:13]  ³ tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[32:13]  ⁴ tn The verb is difficult to translate, since it has the idea of “complete, finish” (תָּמָם, tamam). It could be translated “consumed” in this passage (so KJV, ASV); NASB “was destroyed.”
