Deuteronomy 1:34-40

Jubilee Bible 2000

³⁴ And the LORD heard the voice of your words and was angry and swore, saying,

³⁵ Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see that good land, which I swore to give unto your fathers,

³⁶ except Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he has trodden upon, and to his sons, because he has perfectly followed the LORD.

³⁷ Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou shalt not go in there either.

³⁸ But Joshua, the son of Nun, who stands before thee, he shall go in there; encourage him; for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

³⁹ Moreover your little ones, whom ye said should be a prey and your children who in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in there, and unto them will I give it, and they shall inherit it.

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