And I commanded you at that time all the things that ye should do.

Whither shall we go up? Our brethren have made our hearts melt, saying, They are a people greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.

Jehovah your God who goeth before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

and in the wilderness where thou hast seen that Jehovah thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came to this place.
