There is no god besides you who have the care of all, that you need show you have not unjustly condemned. For your might is the source of justice; your mastery over all things makes you lenient to all. For you show your might when the perfection of your power is disbelieved; and in those who know you, you rebuke temerity. But though you are master of might, you judge with clemency, and with much lenience you govern us; for power, whenever you will, attends you. And you taught your people, by these deeds, that those who are just must...

The more I called them, the farther they went from me, Sacrificing to the Baals and burning incense to idols.

She shall respond there as in the days of her youth, when she came up from the land of Egypt.
