²² You and your parents were always making the Eternal furious! At Taberah, you whined and complained;^[a] at Massah, you were sure the Lord was going to let you die of thirst;^[b] at Kibroth-hattaavah, you said you were sick of the food He provided!^{[c] 23} At Kadesh-barnea, when you finally reached the promised land,^[d] the Eternal sent you in: “Go and take possession of the land—I’ve given it to you!” But you defied this direct order from the Eternal, your True God! You didn’t trust Him, and you didn’t listen to His voice. ²⁴ You’ve been rebelling against Him from the day I met you!
