28lest the land from which you brought us say, aBecause the Lord was not able to bring them into the land that he promised them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to put them to death in the wilderness.”

Deuteronomy 32:26-27

26 bI would have said, “I will cut them to pieces;
cI will wipe them from human memory,”
27had I not feared provocation by the enemy,
lest their adversaries should misunderstand,
lest they should say, d“Our hand is triumphant,
it was not the Lord who did all this.”’

Joshua 7:9

9For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it and will surround us and ecut off our name from the earth. And what will you do for your great name?”
