    15¶ Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak, saying,

    16Because 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.

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

    18The 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.

    19Pardon, 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.

    20And the Lord said, I have pardoned according to thy word:

    21But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.

    22Because 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;

    23Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:

    24But 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.
