39 And when Moses relayed these words to all the Israelites, the people mourned bitterly.

41 But Moses said, “Why are you transgressing the commandment of the LORD? This will not succeed!

42 Do not go up, lest you be struck down by your enemies, because the LORD is not among you.

43 For there the Amalekites and Canaanites will face you, and you will fall by the sword. Because you have turned away from the LORD, He will not be with you.”
