13 So David said to Gad: “It is very distressing to me. Please, let me fall into the hand of Jehovah,+ for very many are his mercies;+ but into the hand of man do not let me fall.”+
7 Let the wicked man leave his way,+ and the harmful man his thoughts;+ and let him return to Jehovah, who will have mercy upon him,+ and to our God, for he will forgive in a large way.+
11 Look! We pronounce happy those who have endured.+ YOU have heard of the endurance of Job+ and have seen the outcome* Jehovah* gave,+ that Jehovah* is very tender in affection and merciful.*+
