Deuteronomy 9:26

Read in context

Deuteronomy 9:24–28 · Berean Standard Bible

24 You have been rebelling against the LORD since the day I came to know you.

25 So I fell down before the LORD for forty days and forty nights, because the LORD had said He would destroy you.

26 And I prayed to the LORD and said, “O Lord GOD, do not destroy Your people, Your inheritance, whom You redeemed through Your greatness and brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

27 Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Overlook the stubbornness of this people and the wickedness of their sin.

28 Otherwise, those in the land from which You brought us out will say, ‘Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land He had promised them, and because He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.’
