Not only to afflict, but also io de- stroy a people, Nurab. Xiv. 27, 28, 29. " Plow long shall 1 bear with this evil congre- gation which murmur against me? I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel, -which they murmur against me. Say unto them, As truly as 1 live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will 1 do t...o you: your carcases shall fall in this wilderness ; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured against inc. 1 Cor.
