I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.
Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood upon him, and his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.
I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took him away in my wrath.
I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
