Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 99 of Psalms. Psalm 99 proclaims God’s holiness three times while developing his reign over the peoples. The Lord loves justice and has acted on behalf of Jacob, but he also responds to those who call upon his name. Moses, Aaron, and Samuel appear as examples of intercessors heard by God, although the text also recalls that God responded by disciplining the people. Divine holiness combines nearness, mercy, and authority.

HERR, du bist unser Gott, du erhörtest sie; du, Gott, vergabst ihnen und straftest ihr Tun.
Jehová Dios nuestro, tú les respondías: Tú les fuiste un Dios perdonador, Y vengador de sus obras.
Jehová nuestro Dios, tú les respondías; fuiste para ellos un Dios perdonador, aunque castigabas sus acciones.
Eternel, notre Dieu, tu les exauças, Tu fus pour eux un Dieu qui pardonne, Mais tu les as punis de leurs fautes.
O Signore Iddio nostro, tu li esaudisti; Tu fosti loro un Dio perdonatore; Ma altresì vendicator de’ lor fatti.
Tu os escutaste, SENHOR nosso Deus: tu foste um Deus que lhes perdoaste, ainda que tomaste vingança dos seus feitos.
耶和華-我們的上帝啊,你應允了他們; 你是赦免他們的上帝, 卻按他們所做的報應他們。
