| Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the Lord, and I will not keep anger for ever. | ‘Return, faithless Israel,’ declares the Lord; ‘I will not look at you in anger. For I am gracious,’ declares the Lord; ‘I will not be angry forever.’ |
| For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake. | For to you it has been granted for Christ’s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on His behalf. |
