^9 (A)He will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.

²⁰ Come, my people, ^(A)enter your chambers,
And shut your doors behind you;
Hide yourself, as it were, ^(B)for a little moment,
Until the indignation is past.

⁷ “For^(A) a mere moment I have forsaken you,
But with great mercies ^(B)I will gather you.

⁸ With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
^(A)But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
Says the Lord, your Redeemer.
