Numbers 14:31

But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

But your little ones {H2945}, which ye said {H559} should be a prey {H957}, them will I bring in {H935}, and they shall know {H3045} the land {H776} which ye have despised {H3988}.

But your little ones, who you said would be taken as booty - them I will bring in. They will know the land you have rejected.

But I will bring your children, whom you said would become plunder, into the land you have rejected—and they will enjoy it.

But your little ones, that ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.
