04:014:014 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for
they have heard that thou LORD art among this people, that
thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth
over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in a
pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
04:014:015 Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the
nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,
04:014:016 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into the
land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain them in
the wilderness.
04:014:017 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great,
according as thou hast spoken, saying,
04:014:018 The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving
iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the
guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children
unto the third and fourth generation.
04:014:019 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according
unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast forgiven
this people, from Egypt even until now.
04:014:020 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word:
04:014:021 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the
glory of the LORD.
04:014:022 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my
miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have
tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my
voice;
04:014:023 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their
fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:
04:014:024 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him,
and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land
whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.
04:014:025 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the valley.)
Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness by the way
of the Red sea.
04:014:026 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
04:014:027 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which
murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children
of Israel, which they murmur against me.
04:014:028 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye have
spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
04:014:029 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were
numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty
years old and upward which have murmured against me.
04:014:030 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I
sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of
Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
