11. And who are you to test the Lord?
12. This is not a word that will provoke mercy, but rather one that may excite wrath and enkindle fury.
13. You have set a time limit for the mercy of the Lord, and you have established a day for him, according to your choice.
14. But, since the Lord is patient, let us be repentant about this same matter, and let us beg his indulgence with many tears.
15. For God will not threaten like man, nor will he be inflamed to anger like a son of man.
