Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression; and that will by no means clear (the guilty), visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
For thus saith Jehovah, The whole land shall be a desolation; yet will I not make a full end.
O Jehovah, correct me, but in measure: not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
Fear not thou, O Jacob my servant, saith Jehovah; for I am with thee: for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee; but I will not make a full end of thee, but I will correct thee in measure, and will in no wise leave thee unpunished.
