Deuteronomy 1:20-22

International Standard Version

²⁰ I told you at that time, ‘You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the Lord our God is about to give us. ²¹ Look! The Lord your God has given the land that lies^[a] before you. Go and possess it, just as the Lord God of your ancestors commanded you. Don’t be afraid or discouraged.’

²² “Then all of you approached me and said: ‘Let’s send out men in advance of us so they can survey the land and bring back a report to us on how we’ll go up to their cities.’
