35 ^a‘Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see that good land of which I¹ swore to give to your fathers,

36 ^aexcept Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him and his children I am giving the land on which he walked, because ^bhe wholly followed the Lord.’

37 ^aThe Lord was also angry with me for your sakes, saying, ‘Even you shall not go in there.

38 ^aJoshua the son of Nun, ^bwho stands before you, he shall go in there. ^cEncourage him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

39 ^a‘Moreover your little ones and your children, who ^byou say will be victims, who today ^chave no knowledge of good and evil, they shall go in there; to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.

40 ^aBut as for you, turn and take your journey into the wilderness by the Way of the Red Sea.’

Deuteronomy 1:37

The sentence on Moses was not passed when the people rebelled during their first encampment at Kadesh, but some 37 years later, when they had re-assembled in the same neighborhood at Meribah (see the Numbers 20:13 note). He alludes to it here as having happened not many months previously, bearing on the facts which were for his purpose in pricking the conscience of the people.
