Psalm 78:37-39

Lexham English Bible

³⁷ For their heart was not steadfast with him,
nor were they faithful to his covenant.
³⁸ But he was compassionate; he pardoned^[a] their guilt
and did not destroy them.
And many times he turned back his anger
and did not stir up all his wrath,
³⁹ for he remembered that they were flesh,
a passing wind that does not return.
