“Consider the generations of old.
See the generations of old.
Has anyone who trusted in the Lord been disappointed?
Has anyone persevered in the fear of the Lord been forsaken?
Has anyone who called upon him been neglected?
The Lord is compassionate.
The Lord is merciful.
He forgives sins.
He saves in time of distress.”
See what happened to your ancestors, the generations of old. Has anyone who trusted in the Lord been disappointed? Has anyone been forsaken who preserved in the fear of the Lord? Has anyone been neglected who called upon the Lord? After all, the Lord is compassionate, merciful, and forgiving. He will save you in the time of distress.
