Exodus 34:9

And Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen this people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.

“Pardon, I pray, the iniquity of this people according to the greatness of Your lovingkindness, just as You also have forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.”

“And I fell down before Yahweh, as at the first, forty days and nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water because of all your sin which you had committed in doing what was evil in the sight of Yahweh to provoke Him to anger.

For Your name’s sake, O Yahweh, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

Who is a God like You, who forgives iniquity And passes over the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance? He does not hold fast to His anger forever Because He delights in lovingkindness.

‘As for the promise which I cut with you when you came out of Egypt, My Spirit is standing in your midst; do not fear!’
