Deuteronomy 1:26-37

Deuteronomy 1:26-37

[26] Notwithstanding ye would  not go up,  but rebelled  against the commandment  of the LORD  your God:  [27] And ye murmured  in your tents,  and said,  Because the LORD  us, he hath brought us forth  out of the land  of Egypt,  to deliver  us into the hand  of the Amorites,  to destroy  [28] Whither shall we go up?  our brethren  have discouraged  our heart,  saying,  The people  is greater  and taller  than we; the cities  are great  and walled up  to heaven;  and moreover we have seen  the sons  of the Anakims  [29] Then I said  unto you, Dread  not, neither be afraid  [30] The LORD  your God  which goeth  before  you, he shall fight  for you, according to all that he did  for you in Egypt  before your eyes;  [31] And in the wilderness,  where thou hast seen  how that the LORD  thy God  bare  thee, as a man  doth bear  his son,  in all the way  that ye went,  until ye came  into this place.  [32] Yet in this thing  ye did not believe  the LORD  your God,  [33] Who went  in the way  before  you, to search you out  a place  to pitch your tents  in, in fire  by night,  to shew  you by what way  and in a cloud  by day.  [34] And the LORD  heard  the voice  of your words,  and was wroth,  and sware,  saying,  [35] Surely there shall not one  of this evil  generation  see  that good  land,  which I sware  to give  unto your fathers,  [36] Save  Caleb  the son  of Jephunneh;  he shall see  it, and to him will I give  the land  that  he hath trodden upon,  and to his children,  because he hath wholly  followed  the LORD.  [37] Also the LORD  was angry  with me for your sakes,  saying,  Thou also shalt not go  in thither.
