Deuteronomy 1:34-40

English Standard Version

The Penalty for Israel's Rebellion

³⁴ “And the Lord heard your words and was angered, and he swore, ^35 (A)‘Not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land that I swore to give to your fathers, ^36 (B)except Caleb the son of Jephunneh. He shall see it, and to him and to his children I will give the land on which he has trodden, because he has wholly followed the Lord!’ ³⁷ Even with me ^(C)the Lord was angry on your account and said, ‘You also shall not go in there. ^38 (D)Joshua the son of Nun, ^(E)who stands before you, he shall enter. ^(F)Encourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it. ³⁹ And as for ^(G)your little ones, who you said would become a prey, and your children, who today ^(H)have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there. And to them I will give it, and they shall possess it. ⁴⁰ But as for you, ^(I)turn, and journey into the wilderness in the direction of the Red Sea.’
