In context

³⁷Their hearts were disloyal to Him, and they were unfaithful to His covenant.

³⁸And yet He was compassionate; He forgave their iniquity and did not destroy them. He often restrained His anger and did not unleash His full wrath.

³⁹He remembered that they were but flesh, a passing breeze that does not return.

⁴⁰How often they disobeyed Him in the wilderness and grieved Him in the desert!

⁴¹Again and again they tested God and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
