32. In spite of all this, they still sinned; despite his wonders, they did not believe.
33. So he made their days vanish like a breath,and their years in terror.
34. When he killed them, they sought him;they repented and sought God earnestly.
35. They remembered that God was their rock,the Most High God their redeemer.
36. But they flattered him with their mouths;they lied to him with their tongues.
37. Their heart was not steadfast toward him;they were not faithful to his covenant.
38. Yet he, being compassionate, atoned for their iniquityand did not destroy them;he restrained his anger oftenand did not stir up all his wrath.
39. He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes and comes not again.
