Job 33:27
27He sings before men and says:‘I asinned and perverted what was right,
and it was not repaid to me.
Isaiah 57:15-18
15For thus says bthe One who is high and lifted up,who inhabits eternity, whose name is cHoly:
d“I dwell in the high and holy place,
and also ewith him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
fto revive the spirit of the lowly,
and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 gFor I will not contend forever,
nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
and the breath of life that I made.
17Because of the iniquity of his hunjust gain I was angry,
I struck him; I hid my face and was angry,
but he went on backsliding in the way of his own heart.
18I have seen his ways, ibut I will heal him;
I will lead him jand restore comfort to him and his mourners,
Jeremiah 31:18-20
18I have heard kEphraim grieving,‘You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined,
like an untrained calf;
lbring me back that I may be restored,
for you are the Lord my God.
19For after mI had turned away, I relented,
and after I was instructed, nI struck my thigh;
oI was ashamed, and I was confounded,
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’
20 pIs Ephraim my dear son?
qIs he my darling child?
For as often as I speak against him,
I do remember him still.
rTherefore my heart ▼
▼Hebrew bowels
yearns for him;I will surely have mercy on him,
declares the Lord.
Hosea 11:8
8 How can I give you up, O Ephraim?How can I hand you over, O Israel?
tHow can I make you ulike Admah?
How can I treat you vlike Zeboiim?
wMy heart recoils within me;
my compassion grows warm and tender.
Acts 5:31
31God exalted xhim at his right hand as yLeader and zSavior, aato give abrepentance to Israel and acforgiveness of sins.
