TSK · Deuteronomy 32:36

Then the LORD relented over the evil that he had said he would do to his people.

When the LORD raised up leaders for them, the LORD was with each leader and delivered the people from their enemies while the leader remained alive. The LORD felt sorry for them when they cried out in agony because of what their harsh oppressors did to them.

So I am ready to bring disaster on the dynasty of Jeroboam. I will cut off every last male belonging to Jeroboam in Israel, including even the weak and incapacitated. I will burn up the dynasty of Jeroboam, just as one burns manure until it is completely consumed.

Ahab’s entire family will die. I will cut off every last male belonging to Ahab in Israel, including even the weak and incapacitated.

The LORD judges the nations. Vindicate me, LORD, because I am innocent, because I am blameless, O Exalted One!

Turn back toward us, O LORD! How long must this suffering last? Have pity on your servants!

He remembered his covenant with them, and relented because of his great loyal love.

Indeed, the people of Israel are my dear children. They are the children I take delight in. For even though I must often rebuke them, I still remember them with fondness. So I am deeply moved with pity for them and will surely have compassion on them. I, the LORD, affirm it!

Then I heard the man clothed in linen who was over the waters of the river as he raised both his right and left hands to the sky and made an oath by the one who lives forever:“It is for a time, times, and half a time. Then, when the power of the one who shatters the holy people has been exhausted, all these things will be finished.”

The LORD’s Response Then the LORD became zealous for his land; he had compassion on his people.

The LORD decided not to do this. The Sovereign LORD said,“This will not happen either.”
