Passage Content

A different example:
And Your wrath is according
to the fear that is due to You

The level of God’s wrath correlates
with the offender’s fear of God.
A different example:
You took him away who joyfully
performed righteousness, those
who remembered You in Your ways,
behold You were wroth, and we sinned,
upon them have we stayed of
old that we might be saved

This verse also teaches that God displays wrath
specifically due to the transgressions of those
who are accustomed to acting righteously.
Whoever is joyful in the suffering that comes upon
him brings salvation to the world,
Upon them have we stayed of
old that we might be saved.
