Context of Deuteronomy 1:34

32But you did not trust the Lord your God to help you. 33He was the one who went in front of you on your journey. He was there in a fire during the night and in a cloud during the day. He found good places for you to put up your tents. He showed you the way that you should go. When the Lord heard that you were complaining, he was angry. He made this serious promise: 35‘You people who are now alive are wicked. None of you will see the good land that I promised to give to your ancestors. 36Only Jephunneh's son Caleb will see it. He has obeyed me faithfully. So I will give to him and to his descendants the land that he walked on.’
