44But they foolishly dared to go up to the 14:44 Or top of the mountainridge of the hill country; neither the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses left the camp.
44But [in their arrogance] they dared to go up to the ridge of the hill country; however, neither the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses left the camp.
44But they wouldn’t listen. They still went up toward the highest point in the hill country. They went up even though Moses didn’t move from the camp. They went even though the ark of the Lord’s covenant didn’t move from the camp.
