Ich aber bin elend [But I am poor] (Psalm 69:29; Exodus 34:6-7) – Johannes Brahms

Psalm 69:29; Exodus 34:6-7 [German]

²⁹ But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.

⁶ And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,

⁷ Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
