Moses Intercedes for the People
13 But (A)Moses said to the Lord, “Then the Egyptians will hear of it, for you brought up this people in your might from among them, 14 and they will tell the inhabitants of this land. (B)They have heard that you, O Lord, are in the midst of this people. For you, O Lord, are seen face to face, and (C)your cloud stands over them and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night. 15 Now if you kill this people as one man, then the nations who have heard your fame will say, 16 ‘It is because the Lord (D)was not able to bring this people into the land that he swore to give to them that he has killed them in the wilderness.’ 17 And now, please let the power of the Lord be great as you have promised, saying, 18 (E)‘The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, (F)visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’ 19 Please (G)pardon the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of your steadfast love, just (H)as you have forgiven this people, from Egypt until now.”
God Promises Judgment
20 Then the Lord said, “I have pardoned, (I)according to your word. 21 But truly, as I live, and as all (J)the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord, 22 (K)none of the men who have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have put me to the test these (L)ten times and have not obeyed my voice, 23 (M)shall see the land that I swore to give to their fathers. And none of those who despised me shall see it. 24 But my servant (N)Caleb, because he has a different spirit and has (O)followed me fully, I will bring into the land into which he went, and his descendants shall possess it. 25 (P)Now, since the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valleys, (Q)turn tomorrow and set out for the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea.”
