05:001:038 But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
05:001:039 Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
05:001:040 But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
05:001:041 Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his weapons of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill.
05:001:042 And the LORD said unto me, Say unto them. Go not up, neither
fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your
enemies.
05:001:043 So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled
against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously
up into the hill.
05:001:044 And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out
against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in
Seir, even unto Hormah.
05:001:045 And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would
not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.
05:001:046 So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that
ye abode there.
05:002:001 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days.
