Numbers 14:14-16
Easy-to-Read Version
14 The Egyptians have already told the people in Canaan about it. They already know you are the Lord. They know that you are with your people. They know that the people saw you. Those people know about the special cloud. They know you use the cloud to lead your people during the day. And they know the cloud becomes a fire to lead your people at night. 15 So you must not kill these people now. If you kill them, all the nations who have heard about your power will say, 16 ‘The Lord was not able to bring them into the land he promised them. So he killed them in the desert.’

New International Version
14 And they will tell the inhabitants of this land about it. They have already heard(A) that you, Lord, are with these people(B) and that you, Lord, have been seen face to face,(C) that your cloud stays over them,(D) and that you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.(E) 15 If you put all these people to death, leaving none alive, the nations who have heard this report about you will say, 16 ‘The Lord was not able to bring these people into the land he promised them on oath,(F) so he slaughtered them in the wilderness.’(G)
