Our brothers have discouraged us, saying: The people are larger and taller than we are; the cities are large, fortified to the heavens. We also saw the descendants of the Anakim there.'" |
| 29Then I said to you, "Do not be terrified; do not be afraid of them. | 29Then I said to you, ‘Do not be in dread or afraid of them. | 29"Then I said to you, 'Do not be shocked, nor fear them. | 29Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them. | 29So I said to you: Don't be terrified or afraid of them! |

| 31and in the wilderness. There you saw how the LORD your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place." | 31and in the wilderness, where you have seen how the LORD your God carried you, as a man carries his son, all the way that you went until you came to this place.’ | 31and in the wilderness where you saw how the LORD your God carried you, just as a man carries his son, in all the way which you have walked until you came to this place.' | 31And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place. | 31And you saw in the wilderness how the LORD your God carried you as a man carries his son all along the way you traveled until you reached this place. |
| 32In spite of this, you did not trust in the LORD your God, | 32Yet in spite of this word you did not believe the LORD your God, | 32"But for all this, you did not trust the LORD your God, | 32Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God, | 32But in spite of this you did not trust the LORD your God, |

I will give them the land, and they will take possession of it. |
| 40But as for you, turn around and set out toward the desert along the route to the Red Sea." | 40But as for you, turn, and journey into the wilderness in the direction of the Red Sea.’ | 40'But as for you, turn around and set out for the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.' | 40But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea. | 40But you are to turn back and head for the wilderness by way of the Red Sea.'" |
The Defeat at Hormah | 41Then you replied, "We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up and fight, as the LORD our God commanded us." So every one of you put on his weapons, thinking it easy to go up into the hill country. | 41“Then you answered me, ‘We have sinned against the LORD. We ourselves will go up and fight, just as the LORD our God commanded us.’ And every one of you fastened on his weapons of war and thought it easy to go up into the hill country. | 41"Then you said to me, 'We have sinned against the LORD; we will indeed go up and fight, just as the LORD our God commanded us.' And every man of you girded on his weapons of war, and regarded it as easy to go up into the hill country. | 41Then 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. | 41You answered me, 'We have sinned against the LORD. We will go up and fight just as the LORD our God commanded us.' Then each of you put on his weapons of war and thought it would be easy to go up into the hill country." |
| 42But the LORD said to me, "Tell them, 'Do not go up and fight, because I will not be with you. You will be defeated by your enemies.'" | 42And the LORD said to me, ‘Say to them, Do not go up or fight, for I am not in your midst, lest you be defeated before your enemies.’ | 42"And the LORD said to me, 'Say to them, "Do not go up nor fight, for I am not among you; otherwise you will be defeated before your enemies."' | 42And 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. | 42But the LORD said to me, 'Tell them: Don't go up and fight, for I am not with you to keep you from being defeated by your enemies.' |

You rebelled against the LORD's command and defiantly went up into the hill country. |
| 44The Amorites who lived in those hills came out against you; they chased you like a swarm of bees and beat you down from Seir all the way to Hormah. | 44Then the Amorites who lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you as bees do and beat you down in Seir as far as Hormah. | 44"The Amorites who lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you as bees do, and crushed you from Seir to Hormah. | 44And 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. | 44Then the Amorites who lived there came out against you and chased you like a swarm of bees. They routed you from Seir as far as Hormah. |
| 45You came back and wept before the LORD, but he paid no attention to your weeping and turned a deaf ear to you. | 45And you returned and wept before the LORD, but the LORD did not listen to your voice or give ear to you. | 45"Then you returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD did not listen to your voice nor give ear to you. | 45And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you. | 45When you returned, you wept before the LORD, but He didn't listen to your requests or pay attention to you. |
| 46And so you stayed in Kadesh many days--all the time you spent there. | 46So you remained at Kadesh many days, the days that you remained there. | 46"So you remained in Kadesh many days, the days that you spent there. | 46So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode there. | 46For this reason you stayed in Kadesh as long as you did." |
