Numbers 14:18-20
18‘The LORD is slow to anger and abounding in loving devotion,1 forgiving iniquity and transgression. Yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished; He will visit the iniquity of the fathers upon their children to the third and fourth generation.’
19Pardon, I pray, the iniquity of this people, in keeping with the greatness of Your loving devotion, just as You have forgiven them ever since they left Egypt.”
20“I have pardoned them as you requested,” the LORD replied.
