Deuteronomy 1:43-45

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴³ Although I told you, you would not listen. You rebelled against the command of the Lord and presumptuously went up into the hill country.^{(A) 44} The Amorites who lived in that hill country then came out against you and chased you as bees do. They beat you down in Seir as far as Hormah.^{(B) 45} When you returned and wept before the Lord, the Lord would neither heed your voice nor pay you any attention.
