Numbers 14:7-24

7and they spake unto all the congregationH5712 of the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, The landH776, which we passedH5674 through to spyH8446 it out, is an exceeding goodH2896 landH776. 8If Jehovah delightH2654 in us, then he will bringH935 us into this landH776, and giveH5414 it unto us; a landH776 which floweth with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 9OnlyH389 rebelH4775 not against Jehovah, neither fearH3372 ye the peopleH5971 of the landH776; for they are breadH3899 for us: their defence is removedH5493 from over them, and Jehovah is with us: fearH3372 them not. 10But all the congregationH5712 bade stoneH68 them with stonesH68. And the gloryH3519 of Jehovah appearedH7200 in the tentH168 of meetingH4150 unto all the children of IsraelH3478.

11And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, How long will this peopleH5971 despise me? and how long will they not believeH539 in me, for all the signsH226 which I have wrought among them? 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: 21but in very deed, as I live, and as all the earthH776 shall be filledH4390 with the gloryH3519 of Jehovah; 22because all those menH376 that have seenH7200 my gloryH3519, and my signsH226, which I wrought in EgyptH4714 and in the wildernessH4057, yet have tempted me these tenH6235 timesH6471, and have not hearkened to my voiceH6963; 23surely they shall not seeH7200 the landH776 which I sware unto their fathersH1, neither shall any of them that despised me seeH7200 it: 24but my servantH5650 CalebH3612, because he had another spiritH7307 with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bringH935 into the landH776 whereinto he wentH935; and his seedH2233 shall possessH3423 it.
