Leviticus 26:39-45

39 And those of you who are left shall ^arot away in your enemies’ lands because of their iniquity, and also because of the iniquities of their fathers they shall rot away like them.

40 “But if ^bthey confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers in their treachery that they ^ccommitted against me, and also in walking contrary to me, 41 so that I walked contrary to them and brought them into the land of their enemies—if then their ^duncircumcised heart is ^ehumbled and they make amends for their iniquity, 42 then I will ^fremember my covenant with Jacob, and I will remember my covenant with Isaac and my covenant with Abraham, and I will ^gremember the land. 43 But ^hthe land shall be abandoned by them and enjoy its Sabbaths while it lies desolate without them, and they shall make amends for their iniquity, because they spurned my rules and their soul abhorred my statutes. 44 Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, ⁱI will not spurn them, neither will I abhor them so as to destroy them utterly and ^jbreak my covenant with them, for I am the Lord their God. 45 But I will for their sake remember the covenant with their forefathers, ^kwhom I brought out of the land of Egypt ^lin the sight of the nations, that I might be their God: I am the Lord.”

Job 42:6

6 therefore I despise myself,
