Deuteronomy 9:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ When the Lord sent you out from Kadesh-Barnea, he said, ‘Go into the land that I have given to you and live there.’ But you turned against the Lord your God. You refused to trust him or obey him. ²⁴ You have refused to obey the Lord ever since I have known you.

²⁵ So I lay down on the ground for those 40 days and nights. I prayed to the Lord because he had said that he would destroy you.
