Exodus 33:2-4

New International Version - UK

² I will send an angel before you and drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. ³ Go up to the land flowing with milk and honey. But I will not go with you, because you are a stiff-necked people and I might destroy you on the way.’

⁴ When the people heard these distressing words, they began to mourn and no one put on any ornaments.
