Deuteronomy 1:39-41

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³⁹ Moreover, your little ones whom you said would become a prey, and your children who at this time cannot discern between good and evil, they shall enter Canaan, and to them I will give it and they shall possess it.

⁴⁰ But as for you, turn and journey into the wilderness by way of the Red Sea.

⁴¹ Then you said to me, We have sinned against the Lord. We will go up and fight, as the Lord our God commanded us. And you girded on every man his battle weapons, and thought it a simple matter to go up into the hill country.
