Psalm 78:37-39

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³⁷ Their heart was not steadfast towards him;
    they were not true to his covenant.
³⁸ Yet he, being compassionate,
    forgave their iniquity,
    and did not destroy them;
often he restrained his anger,
    and did not stir up all his wrath.
³⁹ He remembered that they were but flesh,
    a wind that passes and does not come again.
