Deuteronomy 2:15

2:15 Indeed, it was the very hand of the Lord that eliminated them from within ¹  the camp until they were all gone.

Deuteronomy 28:24

28:24 The Lord will make the rain of your land powder and dust; it will come down on you from the sky until you are destroyed.

[2:15]  ¹ tn Heb “from the middle of.” Although many recent English versions leave this expression untranslated, the point seems to be that these soldiers did not die in battle but “within the camp.”
