And at the sound of the people weeping, every man at his tent-door, the wrath of the Lord was great, and Moses was very angry.

But the people living in the land are strong, and the towns are walled and very great; further, we saw the children of Anak there.

Said to all the children of Israel, This land which we went through to see is a very good land.

Then Moses was very angry, and said to the Lord, Give no attention to their offering: not one of their asses have I taken, or done wrong to any of them.

For I will give you a place of very great honour, and whatever you say to me I will do; so come, in answer to my prayer, and put a curse on this people.
