Numbers 14:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ He could not bring the people into the land for which he had sworn, therefore did he kill them in the wilderness.

¹⁷ Let their the strength of the Lord be magnified, as thou hast sworn, saying:

¹⁸ The Lord is patient and full of mercy, taking away iniquity and wickedness, and leaving no man clear, who visitest the sins of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.
