Deuteronomy 1:19-21

New International Reader's Version

Twelve Men Check Out the Land of Canaan

¹⁹ The Lord our God commanded us to start out from Mount Horeb. So we did. We went toward the hill country of the Amorites. We traveled all through the huge and terrible desert you saw. Finally, we reached Kadesh Barnea. ²⁰ Then I said to you, “You have reached the hill country of the Amorites. The Lord our God is giving it to us. ²¹ The Lord your God has given you the land. Go up and take it. Do what the Lord says. He’s the God of your people. Don’t be afraid. Don’t lose hope.”
