Numbers 14:40-45
English Standard Version
40 And they rose early in the morning and went up to the heights of the hill country, saying, (A)“Here we are. We will go up to the place that the Lord has promised, for we have sinned.” 41 (B)But Moses said, “Why now are you transgressing the command of the Lord, when that will not succeed? 42 (C)Do not go up, (D)for the Lord is not among you, lest you be struck down before your enemies. 43 For there (E)the Amalekites and the Canaanites are facing you, and you shall fall by the sword. Because you have turned back from following the Lord, the Lord will not be with you.” 44 (F)But they presumed to go up to the heights of the hill country, although neither (G)the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses departed out of the camp. 45 Then (H)the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down and defeated them and pursued them, even to (I)Hormah.

Numbers 14:40-45
Holman Christian Standard Bible
40 They got up early the next morning and went up the ridge of the hill country, saying, “Let’s go to the place the Lord promised, for we were wrong.”(A)
41 But Moses responded, “Why are you going against the Lord’s command? It won’t succeed. 42 Don’t go, because the Lord is not among you and you will be defeated by your enemies. 43 The Amalekites and Canaanites are right in front of you, and you will fall by the sword. The Lord won’t be with you, since you have turned from following Him.”
44 But they dared to go up the ridge of the hill country, even though the ark of the Lord’s covenant and Moses did not leave the camp. 45 Then the Amalekites and Canaanites who lived in that part of the hill country came down, attacked them, and routed them as far as Hormah.(B)
