Open English Bible (OEB)English
Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
Und sie weigerten sich zu gehorchen, und gedachten nicht deiner Wunder, welche du an ihnen getan hattest; sie verhärteten ihren Nacken und setzten sich in ihrer Widerspenstigkeit ein Haupt, um zu ihrer Knechtschaft zurückzukehren. Du aber bist ein Gott der Vergebung, gnädig und barmherzig, langsam zum Zorn und groß an Güte, und du verließest sie nicht.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Y no quisieron oir, ni se acordaron de tus maravillas que habías hecho con ellos; antes endurecieron su cerviz, y en su rebelión pensaron poner caudillo para volverse á su servidumbre. Tú empero, eres Dios de perdones, clemente y piadoso, tardo para la ira, y de mucha misericordia, que no los dejaste.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
E recusaram te ouvir, e não se lembraram de tuas maravilhas que havias feito com eles; ao invés disso, endureceram sua cerviz, e em sua rebelião levantaram um líder para voltarem à sua escravidão. Porém tu, que és Deus que perdoas, clemente e misericordioso, tardio para se irar, e grande em bondade, não os desamparaste.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
Eles se recusaram a escutar e não lembraram das maravilhas que fizeste entre eles, mas tornaram-se teimosos, e na sua rebeldia escolheram um líder para retornar à sua escravidão. Mas Tu és um Deus cheio de perdão, graça e compaixão, demoras a ficar irado e és cheio de amor. Tu não os abandonastes.

17And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.
18Yea, when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is thy God that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations;
19Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way wherein they should go.
