Deuteronomy 1:34 In-Context

32 And soothly neither so ye believed to your Lord God, (But still ye would not trust the Lord your God,)
33 that went before you in the way (who went before you on the way), and measured the place in which ye ought to set your tents, and he showed in the night the way to you by fire, and in the day by a pillar of cloud.

35 None of the men of this worst generation shall see the good land, which I promised under an oath to your fathers,
36 except Caleb, the son of Jephunneh; forsooth he shall see it, and I shall give to him the land upon which he hath trodden, and to his sons, for he followed the Lord.
