“I reside in a high and holy place,
    and with the contrite[a] and humble of spirit,
to revive the spirit of the humble,
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.[b]
16 For I will not attack forever,
    and I will not be angry forever,
for the spirit will grow faint before me,
    and the breaths that I myself I have made.
17 I was angry because of his sin of gain, and I struck him;
    I hid and I was angry, but[c] he walked apostate, in the ways[d] of his heart.
