and clouds are the dust of his feet. - Rend your heart
and not your garments.
Return to the Lord your God,
for he is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love,
and he relents from sending calamity. - Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly. - Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city. - Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
