Deuteronomy 1:40-42
1599 Geneva Bible
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, [a]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.
42 But the Lord said unto me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight, (for I am [b]not among you) lest ye fall before your enemies.
