Deuteronomy 1:20

And I said unto you, you are come unto the mountain of the
Amorites
Which was inhabited by them, and was one of the seven nations the Israelites were to destroy, and possess their land, and which lay on the southern part of the land of Canaan:

which the Lord our God doth give unto us;
not the mountain only, but the whole country of that people, and even all the land of Canaan.

Deuteronomy 1:20 In-Context

18 I issued orders to you at that time regarding everything you would have to deal with.
19 Then we set out from Horeb and headed for the Amorite hill country, going through that huge and frightening wilderness that you've had more than an eyeful of by now - all under the command of God, our God - and finally arrived at Kadesh Barnea.
20 There I told you, "You've made it to the Amorite hill country that God, our God, is giving us.
21 Look, God, your God, has placed this land as a gift before you. Go ahead and take it now. God, the God-of-Your-Fathers, promised it to you. Don't be afraid. Don't lose heart."
22 But then you all came to me and said, "Let's send some men on ahead to scout out the land for us and bring back a report on the best route to take and the kinds of towns we can expect to find."
