Exodus 34:5-7
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
5 The Lord descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name, ‘The Lord.’[a] 6 The Lord passed before him, and proclaimed,
‘The Lord, the Lord,
a God merciful and gracious,
slow to anger,
and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness,
7 keeping steadfast love for the thousandth generation,[b]
forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin,
yet by no means clearing the guilty,
but visiting the iniquity of the parents
upon the children
and the children’s children,
to the third and the fourth generation.’
