Judith 8:13-15

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹³ You have set a time for the mercy of the Lord, and you have appointed him a day, according to your pleasure.

¹⁴ But forasmuch as the Lord is patient, let us be penitent for this same thing, and with many tears let us beg his pardon:

¹⁵ For God will not threaten like man, nor be inflamed to anger like the son of man.
