Numbers [In the desert] 14:17-24

¹⁷Now please let the power of the Lord be great, according as you have spoken, saying,

¹⁸‘Adonai is slow to anger, and abundant in cheshed ·loving-kindness·, forgiving iniquity and disobedience; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation.’

¹⁹Please pardon the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of your cheshed ·loving-kindness·, and according as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt Abode of slavery even until now.”

²⁰Adonai said, “I have pardoned according to your word:

²¹but in very deed, as I live, and as all the earth shall be filled with the kavod Yahweh ·weighty glory of He sustains breathing·;

²²because all those men who have seen my glory, and my signs, which I worked in Egypt Abode of slavery and in the wilderness, yet have tempted me these ten times, and have not sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my voice;

²³surely they shall not see the land which I swore to their fathers, neither shall any of those who despised me see it.

²⁴But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him I will bring into the land into which he went. His offspring shall possess it.
