For I will not contend forever, neither will I always be angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls whom I have made.

For I will not contend H7378 (8799) for ever H5769, neither will I be always H5331 wroth H7107 (8799): for the spirit H7307 should fail H5848 (8799) before H6440 me, and the souls H5397 [which] I have made H6213 (8804).

For, not to the age do I strive, nor for ever am I wroth, For the spirit from before Me is feeble, And the souls I have made.
