Deuteronomy 1:39-41
1599 Geneva Bible
39 Moreover, your [a]children, which ye said should be a prey, and your sons, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
40 But as for you, turn back, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the red Sea.
41 Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the Lord, [b]we will go up, and fight, according to all that the Lord our God hath commanded us: and ye armed you every man to the war, and were ready to go up into the mountain.
