Numbers 14:14

Context
14:14 then they will tell it to the inhabitants 1  of this land. They have heard that you, Lord, are among this people, that you, Lord, are seen face to face, 2  that your cloud stands over them, and that you go before them by day in a pillar of cloud and in a pillar of fire by night.

1 tn The singular participle is to be taken here as a collective, representing all the inhabitants of the land.

2 tn “Face to face” is literally “eye to eye.” It only occurs elsewhere in Isa 52:8. This expresses the closest communication possible.
