Numbers 14:12-19

12I will strike themH5221 with a plagueH1698 and destroy themH3423—and I will makeH6213 youH853 into a nationH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 than they areH4480.”

13But MosesH4872 saidH559 toH413 the LORDH3068, “The EgyptiansH4713 will hearH8085 of itH3588, for by Your strengthH3581 You broughtH5927 thisH2088 peopleH5971 from among themH7130. 14And they will tell itH559 toH413 the inhabitantsH3427 of thisH2063 landH776. They have already heardH8085 thatH3588 YouH859, O LORDH3068, are in the midstH7130 of thisH2088 peopleH5971, thatH834 YouH859, O LORDH3068, have been seenH7200 faceH5869 to faceH5869, that Your cloudH6051 standsH5975 over themH5921, and that YouH859 goH1980 before themH6440 in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119 and a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915.

15If You killH4191 thisH2088 peopleH5971 as oneH259 manH376, the nationsH1471 whoH834 have heardH8085 of Your fameH8088H559 will sayH559, 16‘Because the LORDH3068 was unableH1115H3201 to bringH935 thisH2088 peopleH5971 intoH413 the landH776 He swore to giveH7650 them, He has slaughtered themH7819 in the wildernessH4057.’

17So nowH6258 I prayH4994, may the powerH3581 of my LordH136 be magnifiedH1431, just asH834 You have declaredH1696H559: 18‘The LORDH3068 is slowH750 to angerH639 and aboundingH7227 in loving devotionH2617,1 forgivingH5375 iniquityH5771 and transgressionH6588. Yet He will by no meansH3808H5352 leave the guilty unpunishedH5352; He will visitH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 uponH5921 their childrenH1121 toH5921 the thirdH8029H5921 and fourthH7256 generation.’

19PardonH5545, I prayH4994, the iniquityH5771 of thisH2088 peopleH5971, in keeping with the greatnessH1433 of Your loving devotionH2617, just asH834 You have forgivenH5375 them everH5704 sinceH2008 they left EgyptH4714.”
