Deuteronomy 9:6-8

American Standard Version

⁶ Know therefore, that Jehovah thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people. ⁷ Remember, forget thou not, how thou provokedst Jehovah thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah. ⁸ Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.
