²⁶‘And ye have not been willing to go up, and ye provoke the mouth of Jehovah your God, ²⁷and murmur in your tents, and say, In Jehovah’s hating us He hath brought us out of the land of Egypt, to give us into the hand of the Amorite—to destroy us; ²⁸whither are we going up? our brethren have melted our heart, saying, A people greater and taller than we, cities great and fenced to heaven, and also sons of Anakim—we have seen there.

²⁹‘And I say unto you, Be not terrified, nor be afraid of them; ³⁰Jehovah your God, who is going before you—He doth fight for you, according to all that He hath done with you in Egypt before your eyes, ³¹and in the wilderness, where thou hast seen that Jehovah thy God hath borne thee as a man beareth his son, in all the way which ye have gone, till your coming in unto this place.

³²‘And in this thing ye are not stedfast in Jehovah your God, ³³who is going before you in the way to search out to you a place for your encamping, in fire by night, to shew you in the way in which ye go, and in a cloud by day.
