3 And you should not say: "How powerful am I?" or, "Who will cast me down because of my deeds?" For God will vindicate with vengeance.
4 You should not say, "I sinned, and what grief has befallen me?" For the Most High is a patient recompensor.
5 Do not be willing to be without fear concerning a forgiven sin, and you should not add sin upon sin.
6 And you should not say: "The compassion of the Lord is great; he will take pity on the multitude of my sins."
7 For both mercy and wrath go forth quickly from him, and his wrath sets its gaze upon sinners.
8 You should not delay being converted to the Lord, and you should not set it aside from day to day.
9 For his wrath will approach suddenly, and in the time of vindication, he will destroy you.
