12. For mercy and wrath are with him. He is powerful in forgiveness, and he pours forth wrath.
13. As is his mercy, so also is his correction; he judges a man according to his works.
14. The sinner, in his violations, will not escape; but the patience of the One who shows mercy will not be diminished.
15. Every mercy will make a place for each man, according to the merit of his works, and according to the understanding of his sojourn.
16. You should not say: "I am hidden from God," or, "Who, from on high, will take note of me?"
17. or, "Among a great number of people, I will not be noticed. For what is my soul amid such an immense creation?"
18. Behold: the heavens, and the heaven of the heavens, the abyss, and the entire earth, and the things that are within these, will be shaken by his gaze,
19. together with mountains and hills, and the foundations of the earth. When God casts his gaze upon them, they will be struck with trembling.
