And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.

‘The Lord is slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, forgiving wickedness and transgression; but He will by no means clear the guilty, visiting (avenging) the wickedness and guilt of the fathers on the children, to the third and fourth generations [that is, calling the children to account for the sins of their fathers].’

yea, they refuse to hearken, and have not remembered Thy wonders that Thou hast done with them, and harden their neck and appoint a head, to turn back to their service, in their rebellion; and Thou art a God of pardons, gracious, and merciful, long-suffering, and abundant in kindness, and hast not forsaken them.

But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious; long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.

The LORD is gracious and merciful, long-suffering and of great goodness.

By long-suffering is a ruler persuaded, And a soft tongue breaketh a bone.

Jehovah, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors; in thy long-suffering take me not away: know that for thy sake I bear reproach.

O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? How long shall I complain unto thee, suffering wrong, and thou wilt not help?

So am I allotted months of futility and suffering,
And [long] nights of trouble and misery are appointed to me.

Turn back toward us, O Lord! How long must this suffering last? Have pity on your servants!
