בַּעֲוֺ֥ן בִּצְע֛וֹ קָצַ֥פְתִּי וְאַכֵּ֖הוּ הַסְתֵּ֣ר וְאֶקְצֹ֑ף וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ שׁוֹבָ֖ב בְּדֶ֥רֶךְ לִבּֽוֹ׃
Karena dosa perampasannya Aku murka dan memukul dia; Aku menyembunyikan diri-Ku dan murka, tetapi ia terus berjalan dengan memberontak menurut jalan hatinya.
Duties of the Heart
2. Abandonment (of sin) is a sign of his firm faith in reward and punishment, as written: "The wicked shall give up his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts, and let him return to the L-ord, who shall have mercy upon him, and to our G-d, for He abundantly pardons" (Yeshaya 55:7). Of one who persists in his [evil] ways for a long time, the prophet says: "For the iniquity of his covetousness was I angry, and smote him, and he went on forwardly in the way of his heart" (Yeshaya 57:17). Similarly we can observe among human beings, that if one has wronged his fellow, and along with expressing regret, ceases to wrong him, then it will be proper to forgive him and overlook the misdeed.
