31 Nevertheless, in your great mercies you cdid not make an end of them or forsake them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.
6 rThe Lord passed before him and proclaimed, s“The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness,
18 p‘The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, qvisiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’
5 For you, O Lord, are good and vforgiving,
wabounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
15 But you, O Lord, are a God hmerciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
13 and rend your hearts and not your garments.”
Return to the Lord your God,
for he is hgracious and merciful,
slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love;
and ihe relents over disaster.
