ESVEnglish Standard Version

For I will not contend forever,

nor will I always be angry;

for the spirit would grow faint before me,

and the breath of life that I made.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I will not accuse them forever,

nor will I always be angry,

for then they would faint away because of me—

the very people I have created.

For I will not accuse you forever,

and I will not always be angry;

for then the spirit would grow weak before me,

even the breath, which I have made.

For I will not fight against you forever;

I will not always be angry.

If I were, all people would pass away—

all the souls I have made.

and I will not be angry forever,

for the spirit will grow faint before me,

and the breaths that I myself I have made.
