Numbers 14:18 DBY

¹⁶  Because Jehovah was not able to bring this people into the land that he had sworn unto them, he has therefore slain them in the wilderness.

¹⁷  And now, I beseech thee, let the power of the Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,

¹⁸  Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in goodness, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but by no means clearing [the guilty], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and fourth [generation].

¹⁹  Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of thy loving-kindness, and as thou hast forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.

²⁰  And Jehovah said, I have pardoned according to thy word.
