Prayer of Manasses 1:5 In-Context

3 The sea obeys your command and never overflows its bounds. The power of your wonderful, glorious name keeps the ocean depths in their place.

4 When you show your power, all creation trembles.

5 Your glorious splendor is overwhelming, and your anger is more than sinners can endure.

6 But the mercy you promise is also greater than we can understand or measure.

7 For you are the Lord Most High; you are patient and show mercy and compassion. You make our punishment easier to bear when we suffer for our sins. O Lord, in your great goodness and mercy you promise forgiveness and salvation to those who repent of their sin against you.
