16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which does not lead to death, he will ask, and (A)He will give him life for those who commit sin not leading to death. (B)There is sin leading to death. (C)I do not say that he should pray about that.

The Just Live by Faith
26 For (A)if we sin willfully (B)after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there (C)no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and (D)fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three (E)witnesses. 29 (F)Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, (G)counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, (H)and insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, (I)“Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” [a]says the Lord. And again, (J)“The Lord will judge His people.” 31 (K)It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

10 Now therefore, (A)let Me alone, that (B)My wrath may burn hot against them and I may [a]consume them. And (C)I will make of you a great nation.”
11 (D)Then Moses pleaded with [b]the Lord his God, and said: “Lord, why does Your wrath burn hot against Your people whom You have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? 12 (E)Why should the Egyptians speak, and say, ‘He brought them out to harm them, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth’? Turn from Your fierce wrath, and (F)relent from this harm to Your people. 13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants, to whom You (G)swore by Your own self, and said to them, (H)‘I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven; and all this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.’ ” 14 So the Lord (I)relented from the harm which He said He would do to His people.

Vision of the Locusts
7 Thus the Lord God showed me: Behold, He formed locust swarms at the [a]beginning of the late crop; indeed it was the late crop after the king’s mowings. 2 And so it was, when they had finished eating the grass of the land, that I said:
“O Lord God, forgive, I pray!
(A)Oh,[b] that Jacob may stand,
For he is small!”
3 So (B)the Lord relented concerning this.
“It shall not be,” said the Lord.

19 Give heed to me, O Lord,
And listen to the voice of those who contend with me!
20 (C)Shall evil be repaid for good?
For they have (D)dug a pit for my life.
Remember that I (E)stood before You
To speak good [a]for them,
To turn away Your wrath from them.
21 Therefore (F)deliver up their children to the famine,
And pour out their blood
By the force of the sword;
Let their wives become widows
And (G)bereaved of their children.
Let their men be put to death,
Their young men be slain
By the sword in battle.
