But Moses interceded with the Lord his God:“ Lord, why does Your anger burn against Your people You brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and a strong hand?Why should the Egyptians say,‘ He brought them out with an evil intent to kill them in the mountains and wipe them off the face of the earth’?

Deuteronomy 9:26-29
I prayed to the Lord: Lord God, do not annihilate Your people, Your inheritance, whom You redeemed through Your greatness and brought out of Egypt with a strong hand.Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Disregard this people’s stubbornness, and their wickedness and sin.Otherwise, those in the land you brought us from will say,‘ Because the Lord wasn’t able to bring them into the land He had promised them, and because He hated them, He brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.’But they are Your people, Your inheritance, whom You brought out by Your great power and outstretched arm.

Numbers 14:13-19
But Moses replied to the Lord,“ The Egyptians will hear about it, for by Your strength You brought up this people from them.They will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that You, Lord, are among these people, how You, Lord, are seen face to face, how Your cloud stands over them, and how You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.If You kill this people with a single blow, the nations that have heard of Your fame will declare,‘ Since the Lord wasn’t able to bring this people into the land He swore to give them, He has slaughtered them in the wilderness.’“ So now, may my Lord’s power be magnified just as You have spoken:The Lord is slow to anger and rich in faithful love, forgiving wrongdoing and rebellion. But He will not leave the guilty unpunished, bringing the consequences of the fathers’ wrongdoing on the children to the third and fourth generation.Please pardon the wrongdoing of this people, in keeping with the greatness of Your faithful love, just as You have forgiven them from Egypt until now.”

Return, because of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.Your holy people had a possession for a little while, but our enemies have trampled down Your sanctuary.
