But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:

وَإِذْ أَسَرَّ النَّبِيُّ إِلَى بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِهِ حَدِيثًا فَلَمَّا نَبَّأَتْ بِهِ وَأَظْهَرَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ عَرَّفَ بَعْضَهُ وَأَعْرَضَ عَنْ بَعْضٍ فَلَمَّا نَبَّأَهَا بِه...

LORD, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
