Deuteronomy 1:35-37
New English Translation
35 “Not a single person[a] of this evil generation will see the good land that I promised to give to your ancestors! 36 The exception is Caleb son of Jephunneh;[b] he will see it and I will give him and his descendants the territory on which he has walked, because he has wholeheartedly followed me.”[c] 37 As for me, the Lord was also angry with me on your account. He said, “You also will not be able to go there.

- Deuteronomy 1:35 tn Heb “Not a man among these men.”
- Deuteronomy 1:36 sn Caleb had, with Joshua, brought back to Israel a minority report from Canaan urging a conquest of the land, for he was confident of the Lord’s power (Num 13:6, 8, 16, 30; 14:30, 38).
- Deuteronomy 1:36 tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun (“me”) has been employed in the translation, since it sounds strange to an English reader for the Lord to speak about himself in third person.
