Deuteronomy 1:8-10

8 Behold, [I] have given the land in your presence; go in and possess the land which the LORD swore unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that he would give unto them and to their seed after them.

9 And I spoke unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone;

10 the LORD your God has multiplied you, and, behold, ye [are] this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
