Deuteronomy 1:6-8

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁶ The Lord our God spoke to us at Horeb, saying, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain. ⁷ Resume your journey, and go into the hill country of the Amorites as well as into the neighbouring regions—the Arabah, the hill country, the Shephelah, the Negeb, and the sea coast—the land of the Canaanites and the Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates. ⁸ See, I have set the land before you; go in and take possession of the land that I^[a] swore to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them.’
