Not execute

I will heal their apostasy,
I will love them freely,
For My anger has turned away from them.

Now then let Me alone, that My anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them; and I will make of you a great nation.”

‘I would have said, “I will cut them to pieces,

I will remove the memory of them from men,”

But He, being compassionate,

forgave their iniquity and did not destroy them;

And often He

restrained His anger

And did not arouse all His wrath.

“I have no wrath.
Should someone give Me briars and thorns in battle,
Then I would step on them, I would burn them completely.

“For the sake of My name I delay My wrath,
And for My praise I restrain it for you,
In order not to cut you off.

‘For I am with you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to save you;
For I will destroy completely all the nations where I have scattered you,
Only I will not destroy you completely.
But I will chasten you justly
And will by no means leave you unpunished.’

“At that time,” declares the Lord, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.”

But they rebelled against Me and were not willing to listen to Me; they did not cast away the detestable things of their eyes, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt.Then I resolved to pour out My wrath on them, to accomplish My anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

And Gomorrah with its neighbors,” declares the Lord,
