23 Then Abraham drew near and said, ^w“Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked?

22 And they fell on their faces and said, “O God, ^wthe God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be ^xangry with all the congregation?”

17 Then David spoke to the Lord when he saw the angel who was striking the people, and said, “Behold, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me and against my father’s house.”
