Psalm 31:16

For he says to Moses: I will show mercy to whom I will show mercy; and I will show compassion to whom I will show compassion.

and, that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy which he before prepared for glory, showed mercy to us,

for the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he has shown us favor in the Beloved,

but God, being rich in mercy, on account of his great love with which he loved us,
