TypeError: Object.hasOwn is not a function

Question

I tried to code a bot with the new discord.js version but when I try to log in, it's prompting me this error

/home/max/Schreibtisch/Discord Bots/Perplex/node_modules/discord.js/src/util/Util.js:279
    if (!Object.hasOwn(given, key) || given[key] === undefined) {
                ^

this is my bot code

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds] });

client.on('ready', () => {
    console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
});

client.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction) => {
    if (!interaction.isChatInputCommand()) return;

    if (interaction.commandName === 'ping') {
        await interaction.reply('Pong!');
    }
});

client.login('token');

I don't think there is an error in this code snippet. If this is your src/bot.js file then it seems okay.

However, the error says "Object.hasOwn is not a function" and Object.hasOwn is only available since node.js v16.9.0.

Discord.js v14 requires node.js 16.9 or higher, so make sure you're up to date. To check your node version, use node -v in your terminal or command prompt, and if it's older than this, update it!
