(A)For a brief moment I deserted you,
    but with great compassion I will gather you.
(B)In overflowing anger for a moment
    I hid my face from you,
(C)but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
    says the Lord, your Redeemer.

“This is like (D)the days of Noah[a] to me:
    as I swore that the waters of Noah
    should no more go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you,
    and will not rebuke you.
