For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes: that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

27:14 ye rebelled. See Numbers 20:7-13. God’s judgment against Moses here, in spite of the almost incredible spiritual and military leadership for forty years, indicates the seriousness of rebelling against God’s Word. In one sense, however, it was appropriate for Moses, now 120 years old, to turn the responsibilities of leadership over to a younger man who was well prepared for the rigors of the Canaanite conquest looming ahead of them.
