Deuteronomy 1:42

1:42 But the Lord told me: “Tell them this: ‘Do not go up and fight, because I will not be with you and you will be defeated by your enemies.’”

Deuteronomy 12:10

12:10 When you do go across the Jordan River ¹  and settle in the land he ²  is granting you as an inheritance and you find relief from all the enemies who surround you, you will live in safety. ³ 

¹ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

² tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 12:5.

³ tn In the Hebrew text vv. 10-11 are one long, complex sentence. For stylistic reasons the translation divides this into two sentences.
