Deuteronomio 9:28

28 "De otra manera los de la tierra de donde tú nos sacaste dirán: 'Por cuanto el SEÑOR no pudo hacerlos entrar en la tierra que les había prometido y porque los aborreció, los sacó para hacerlos morir en el desierto.'

Deuteronomio 9:28 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 9:28

Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say
The land of Egypt, the inhabitants of it;

because the Lord was not able to bring them into the land which he
promised them;
the land of Canaan, the inhabitants of it being so mighty, and their cities so strongly fortified. Here Moses expresses his concern for the glory of God, and the honour of his perfections, and makes that a fourth argument why he should not destroy them:

and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the
wilderness;
out of Egypt, a plentiful country, into a wilderness where nothing was to be had; but his choice of them for his inheritance, his redemption of them out of bondage and misery, the care he took of them, and the provision he had made for them in the wilderness, clearly showed that they were not the objects of his hatred, but of his love.

27 "Acuérdate de tus siervos Abraham, Isaac y Jacob; no mires la dureza de este pueblo ni su maldad ni su pecado.

28 "De otra manera los de la tierra de donde tú nos sacaste dirán: 'Por cuanto el SEÑOR no pudo hacerlos entrar en la tierra que les había prometido y porque los aborreció, los sacó para hacerlos morir en el desierto.'
