Deuteronomy 1:22-46

22And ye came nearH7126 to me each one of you, and saidH559, We will sendH7971 menH582 beforeH6440 us, and they shall search us outH2658 the landH776 for us, and bringH7725 us wordH1697 againH7725 by what wayH1870 we must go upH5927, and into what citiesH5892 we shall comeH935. 23And the sayingH1697 pleased me wellH3190H5869: and I tookH3947 twelveH8147H6240 menH582 of you, oneH259 of a tribeH376H7626: 24And they turnedH6437 and went upH5927 to the mountainH2022, and cameH935 to the valleyH5158 of EshcolH812, and searched it outH7270. 25And they tookH3947 of the fruitH6529 of the landH776 in their handsH3027, and brought it downH3381 to us, and broughtH7725 us wordH1697 againH7725, and saidH559, It is a goodH2896 landH776 which the LORDH3068 our GodH430 doth giveH5414 us. 26However ye wouldH14 not go upH5927, but rebelledH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430: 27And ye murmuredH7279 in your tentsH168, and saidH559, Because the LORDH3068 hatedH8135 us, he hath brought us forthH3318 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, to deliverH5414 us into the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH8045 us. 28Where can we go upH5927? our brethrenH251 have discouragedH4549 our heartH3824, sayingH559, The peopleH5971 are greaterH1419 and tallerH7311 than we; the citiesH5892 are greatH1419 and walled upH1219 to heavenH8064; and moreover we have seenH7200 the sonsH1121 of the AnakimsH6062 there.1 29Then I saidH559 to you, DreadH6206 not, neither be afraidH3372 of them. 30The LORDH3068 your GodH430 who goethH1980 beforeH6440 you, he shall fightH3898 for you, according to all that he didH6213 for you in EgyptH4714 before your eyesH5869; 31And in the wildernessH4057, where thou hast seenH7200 how the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 boreH5375 thee, as a manH376 doth bearH5375 his sonH1121, in all the wayH1870 that ye wentH1980, until ye cameH935 into this placeH4725. 32Yet in this thingH1697 ye did not believeH539 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, 33Who wentH1980 in the wayH1870 beforeH6440 you, to search outH8446 for you a placeH4725 to pitch your tentsH2583 in, in fireH784 by nightH3915, to showH7200 you by what wayH1870 ye should goH3212, and in a cloudH6051 by dayH3119. 34And the LORDH3068 heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of your wordsH1697, and was angryH7107, and sworeH7650, sayingH559, 35Surely there shall not oneH376 of these menH582 of this evilH7451 generationH1755 seeH7200 that goodH2896 landH776, which I sworeH7650 to giveH5414 to your fathersH1, 36ExceptH2108 CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312; he shall seeH7200 it, and to him will I giveH5414 the landH776 thatH834 he hath walked uponH1869, and to his childrenH1121, because he hath whollyH4390 followedH310 the LORDH3068.2 37Also the LORDH3068 was angryH599 with me for your sakesH1558, sayingH559, Thou also shalt not goH935 in thereH8033. 38But JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, who standethH5975 beforeH6440 thee, he shall go inH935 there: encourageH2388 him: for he shall cause IsraelH3478 to inheritH5157 it. 39Moreover your little onesH2945, which ye saidH559 should be a preyH957, and your childrenH1121, which in that dayH3117 had no knowledgeH3045 between goodH2896 and evilH7451, they shall go inH935 there, and to them will I giveH5414 it, and they shall possessH3423 it. 40But as for you, turnH6437, and take your journeyH5265 into the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 of the RedH5488 seaH3220. 41Then ye answeredH6030 and saidH559 to me, We have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068, we will go upH5927 and fightH3898, according to all that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 commandedH6680 us. And when ye had girdedH2296 on every manH376 his weaponsH3627 of warH4421, ye were readyH1951 to go upH5927 to the hillH2022. 42And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to me, SayH559 to them, Go not upH5927, neither fightH3898; for I am not amongH7130 you; lest ye be smittenH5062 beforeH6440 your enemiesH341. 43So I spokeH1696 to you; and ye would not hearH8085, but rebelledH4784 against the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and wentH5927 presumptuouslyH2102 upH5927 to the hillH2022.3 44And the AmoritesH567, who dweltH3427 on that mountainH2022, came outH3318 againstH7125 you, and chasedH7291 you, as beesH1682 doH6213, and destroyedH3807 you in SeirH8165, even to HormahH2767. 45And ye returnedH7725 and weptH1058 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; but the LORDH3068 would not hearkenH8085 to your voiceH6963, nor give earH238 to you. 46So ye abodeH3427 in KadeshH6946 manyH7227 daysH3117, according to the daysH3117 that ye abodeH3427 there .
