Deuteronomy 1:41-44

41 aThen you said to me, ‘We have sinned against the Lord; we will indeed go up and fight, just as the Lord our God commanded us.’ And every man of you girded on his weapons of war, and regarded it as easy to go up into the hill country. 42 b“And the Lord said to me, ‘Say to them, “Do not go up nor fight, for I am not among you; otherwise you will be
Lit smitten
defeated before your enemies.”’
43So I spoke to you, but you would not listen. Instead dyou rebelled against the
Lit mouth
command of the Lord, and acted presumptuously and went up into the hill country.
44 fThe Amorites who
Lit dwelt
lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you has bees do, and crushed you from Seir to Hormah.
