Numbers 14:12-20

12I will smite them with the pestilenceH1698, and disinherit them, and will makeH6213 of thee a nationH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 than they.

13And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto Jehovah, Then the EgyptiansH4713 will hearH8085 it; for thou broughtest up this peopleH5971 in thy might from among them; 14and they will tell it to the inhabitantsH3427 of this landH776. They have heardH8085 that thou Jehovah art in the midstH7130 of this peopleH5971; for thou Jehovah art seenH7200 faceH6440 to faceH6440, and thy cloudH6051 standeth over them, and thou goest before them, in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119, and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915. 15Now if thou shalt killH4191 this peopleH5971 as oneH259 manH376, then the nationsH1471 which have heardH8085 the fame of thee will speak, sayingH559, 16Because Jehovah was not ableH3201 to bringH935 this peopleH5971 into the landH776 which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in the wildernessH4057. 17And nowH6258, I pray thee, let the powerH3581 of the LordH136 be greatH1431, according as thou hast spokenH1696, sayingH559, 18Jehovah is slow to angerH639, and abundant in lovingkindness, forgivingH5375 iniquityH5771 and transgressionH6588; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the children, upon the thirdH8029 and upon the fourthH7256 generationH8029. 19Pardon, I pray thee, the iniquityH5771 of this peopleH5971 according unto the greatnessH1433 of thy lovingkindness, and according as thou hast forgivenH5545 this peopleH5971, from EgyptH4714 even until now.

20And Jehovah saidH559, I have pardoned according to thy wordH1697:
