Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy 2:13–14
13“Now arise and cross over the Brook of Zered.”
So we crossed over the Brook of Zered.
14The time we spent traveling from Kadesh-barnea until we crossed over the Brook of Zered was thirty-eight years, until that entire generation of fighting men had perished from the camp, as the LORD had sworn to them.
