In slight anger, for a moment, I hid My face from you; But with kindness everlasting I will take you back in love —said GOD your Redeemer.

For this to Me is like the waters of Noah: As I swore that the waters of Noah Nevermore would flood the earth, So I swear that I will not Be angry with you or rebuke you.
