Deuteronomy 1:26-28

21st Century King James Version

²⁶ “Notwithstanding, ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God;

²⁷ and ye murmured in your tents and said, ‘Because the Lord hated us, He hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to destroy us.

²⁸ Whither shall we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, “The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven, and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.”’
