Deuteronomy 1:26–33

²⁶Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but ^drebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God: ²⁷And ^eye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord ^fhated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us. ²⁸Whither shall we go up? ^gour brethren have ^†discouraged our heart, saying, ^hThe people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the ⁱAnakims there. ²⁹Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them. ³⁰The Lord your God which goeth before you, ^jhe shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes; ³¹And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the Lord thy God ^kbare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place. ³²Yet in this thing ^lye did not believe the Lord your God, ^33mWho went in the way before you, ⁿto search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.
