TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:4-7 This unexpected detour in the narrative provides an important reminder of Israel’s earlier refusal to believe that God would bring them safely into the land of Canaan (Num 14). This summary of God’s judgment upon their fathers reminded the present generation that trusting in God was still necessary if they were to occupy the land their ancestors had forfeited. Further, it signaled the completion of God’s judgment upon the earlier generation.

In a context such as this, your language may say “having gone” and “in their going out” rather than having come and in their coming out. Use whichever is more natural, here and in the next two verses.
