Deuteronomy 1:34

And the Lord heard the voice of your words
Of their murmurings against Moses and Aaron, and of their threatenings to them, Joshua and Caleb, and of their impious charge of hatred of them to God for bringing them out of Egypt, and of their rash wishes that they had died there or in the wilderness, and of their wicked scheme and proposal to make them a captain, and return to Egypt again:

and was wroth, and sware;
by his life, himself; see ( Numbers 14:28 ) ,

saying;

Deuteronomy 1:34 In-Context

32 But in spite of what I said, you still would not trust the Lord,
33 even though he always went ahead of you to find a place for you to camp. To show you the way, he went in front of you in a pillar of fire by night and in a pillar of cloud by day.
34 "The Lord heard your complaints and became angry, and so he solemnly declared,
35 "Not one of you from this evil generation will enter the fertile land that I promised to give your ancestors.
36 Only Caleb son of Jephunneh will enter it. He has remained faithful to me, and I will give him and his descendants the land that he has explored.'
