41 But Moses said, “Then why are you disobeying the Lord now? You will not succeed!
42 Don't go. The Lord is not with you, and your enemies will defeat you.
43 When you face the Amalekites and the Canaanites, you will die in battle; the Lord will not be with you, because you have refused to follow him.”
44 Yet they still dared to go up into the hill country, even though neither the Lord's Covenant Box nor Moses left the camp.
45 Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived there attacked and defeated them, and pursued them as far as Hormah.
