The land

Then Jacob gave Esau of the bread and of the pottage of lentils; and he ate and drank, and rose up, and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

And they despised the pleasant land; they did not believe his word:

for because ye have disregarded all my counsel and rejected my reproof:
