A Futile Invasion Attempt
39 Then Moses told these words to all the children of Israel, aand the people mourned greatly.
40 And they rose early in the morning and went up to the top of the mountain, saying, a“Here we are, and we will go up to the place which the Lord has promised, for we have sinned!”
41 And Moses said, “Now why do you1 transgress the command of the Lord? For this will not succeed.
42 aDo not go up, lest you be defeated by your enemies, for the Lord is not among you.
43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you shall fall by the sword; abecause you have turned away from the Lord, the Lord will not be with you.”
