Deuteronomy 9:18-19
18Then I alay prostrate before the Lord bas before, forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all the sin that you had committed, cin doing what was evil in the sight of the Lord to provoke him to anger. 19For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure that the Lord bore against you, so that he was ready to destroy you. dBut the Lord listened to me that time also.Joshua 7:6-9

Would that we had been content to dwell beyond the Jordan! 8O Lord, what can I say, when Israel has turned their backs before their enemies! 9For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it and will surround us and icut off our name from the earth. And what will you do for your great name?”1 Chronicles 21:16-17

But these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O Lord my God, be against me and against my father’s house. But do not let the plague be on your people.”Psalms 106:23
