Exodus 33:2-4

New Century Version

² I will send an angel to lead you, and I will force these people out of the land: the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. ³ Go up to a fertile land. But I will not go with you, because I might destroy you on the way, since you are such a stubborn people.”

⁴ When the people heard this bad news, they became very sad, and none of them put on jewelry.
