Deuteronomy 1:26-43

26Yet ye wouldH14 not goH5927 up, but rebelledH4784 against the commandment of Jehovah your GodH430: 27and ye murmured in your tentsH168, and saidH559, Because Jehovah hated us, he hath broughtH3318 us forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to deliver us into the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH8045 us. 28Whither are we goingH5927 up? our brethren have made our heartH3824 to meltH4549, sayingH559, The peopleH5971 are greaterH1419 and taller than we; the citiesH5892 are greatH1419 and fortifiedH1219 up to heavenH8064; and moreover we have seenH7200 the sonsH1121 of the Anakim there. 29Then I saidH559 unto you, Dread not, neither be afraidH3372 of them. 30Jehovah your GodH430 who goeth before you, he will fightH3898 for you, according to all that he did for you in EgyptH4714 before your eyesH5869, 31and in the wildernessH4057, whereH834 thou hast seenH7200 how that Jehovah thy GodH430 bare thee, as a manH376 doth bearH5375 his sonH1121, in all the wayH1870 that ye wentH1980, until ye cameH935 unto this placeH4725. 32Yet in this thingH1697 ye did not believeH539 Jehovah your GodH430, 33who wentH1980 before you in the wayH1870, to seekH8446 you out a placeH4725 to pitch your tents in, in fireH784 by nightH3915, to showH7200 you by what wayH1870 ye should goH1980, and in the cloudH6051 by dayH3119.

34And Jehovah heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of your wordsH1697, and was wroth, and sware, sayingH559, 35Surely there shall not oneH376 of these menH376 of this evilH7451 generationH1755 seeH7200 the goodH2896 landH776, which I sware to giveH5414 unto your fathersH1, 36save CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312; he shall seeH7200 it; and to him will I giveH5414 the landH776 that he hath troddenH1869 upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah. 37AlsoH1571 Jehovah was angryH599 with me for your sakes, sayingH559, Thou alsoH1571 shalt not goH935 in thither: 38JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, who standeth before thee, he shall goH935 in thither: encourageH2388 thou him; for he shall cause IsraelH3478 to inheritH5157 it. 39Moreover your littleH2945 onesH2945, that ye saidH559 should beH1961 a preyH957, and your children, that this dayH3117 have no knowledge of goodH2896 or evilH7451, they shall goH935 in thither, and unto them will I giveH5414 it, and they shall possessH3423 it. 40But as for you, turnH6437 you, and take your journeyH1870 into the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 to the Red SeaH3220.

41Then ye answered and saidH559 unto me, We have sinnedH2398 against Jehovah, we will goH5927 up and fightH3898, according to all that Jehovah our GodH430 commandedH6680 us. And ye girdedH2296 on every manH376 his weaponsH3627 of warH4421, and were forward to goH5927 up into the hill-country. 42And Jehovah saidH559 unto me, SayH559 unto them, GoH5927 not up, neither fightH3898; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemiesH341. 43So I spake unto you, and ye hearkened not; but ye rebelledH4784 against the commandment of Jehovah, and were presumptuous, and wentH5927 up into the hill-country.
