Numbers 14:17-19

New International Version - UK

¹⁷ ‘Now may the Lord’s strength be displayed, just as you have declared: ¹⁸ “The Lord is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.” ¹⁹ In accordance with your great love, forgive the sin of these people, just as you have pardoned them from the time they left Egypt until now.’
