Deuteronomy 1:44-46

New International Reader's Version

⁴⁴ The Amorites who lived in those hills came out and attacked you. Like large numbers of bees they chased you. They beat you down from Seir all the way to Hormah. ⁴⁵ You came back and wept in front of the Lord. But he didn’t pay any attention to your weeping. He wouldn’t listen to you. ⁴⁶ So you stayed in Kadesh for many years. You spent a long time in that area.
