Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word: {the pleasant...: Heb. a land of desire}

And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?

Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:
