Numbers 14:12-20
12I will smiteH5221 them with 12pestilenceH1698 and dispossessH3423 them, and I 3will makeH6213 you into a nationH1471 greaterH1419 and mightierH6099 thanH4480 they.”
134But MosesH4872 saidH559 to the LordH3068, “Then the EgyptiansH4714 will hearH8085 of it, for by Your strengthH3581 You broughtH5927 up thisH2088 peopleH5971 from their midstH7130, 14and they will tellH559 it to the inhabitantsH3427 of thisH2088 landH776. They have heardH8085 that You, O LordH3068, are in the midstH7130 of thisH2088 peopleH5971, for 5You, O LordH3068, are seenH7200 eyeH5869 to eyeH5869, while Your cloudH6051 standsH5975 overH5921 them; and You goH1980 beforeH6440 them in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119 and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915. 15Now if You slayH5221 thisH2088 peopleH5971 as oneH259 manH376, 6then the nationsH1471 whoH834 have heardH8085 of Your fameH8088 will 7sayH559, 16‘BecauseH4480 the LordH3068 8couldH3201 not bringH935 thisH2088 peopleH5971 into the landH776 whichH834 He promisedH7650 them by oathH7650, therefore He slaughteredH7819 them in the wildernessH4057.’ 17But nowH6258, I prayH4994, let the powerH3581 of the LordH136 be greatH1431, justH3512 as You have 9declaredH1696H559, 18‘10The LordH3068 is slowH750 to angerH639 and abundantH7227 in lovingkindnessH2617, forgivingH5375 iniquityH5771 and transgressionH6588; but 11He will by noH3808 meansH5352 clearH5352 the guilty, 12visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 on the childrenH1121 13to the thirdH8029 and the fourthH7256 generations.’ 1914PardonH5545, I prayH4994, the iniquityH5771 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 according to the greatnessH1433 of Your lovingkindnessH2617, justH3512 as You also have forgivenH5375 thisH2088 peopleH5971, from EgyptH4714 even untilH5704 nowH2008.”
20So the LordH3068 saidH559, “15I have pardonedH5545 them according to your wordH1697;
