તેણે લોભથી પ્રાપ્ત કરવાને કરેલાં પાપને કારણે હું તેના પર રોષે ભરાયો હતો અને મેં તેને શિક્ષા કરી; મેં તેનાથી મારું મુખ ફેરવ્યું અને હું રોષમાં હતો, પણ તેં પાછો વળીને પોતાના હૃદયને માર્ગે ચાલ્યો ગયો.
हिन्दीयशायाह ५७:१७
उसके लोभ के पाप के कारण मैंने क्रोधित होकर उसको दुःख दिया था, और क्रोध के मारे उससे मुँह छिपाया था; परन्तु वह अपने मनमाने मार्ग में दूर भटकता चला गया था।

16For I will not contend forever, neither will I always be angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls whom I have made.

17I was angry because of the iniquity of his covetousness and struck him. I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.

18I have seen his ways, and will heal him. I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
