for how can I allow my name to be defiled? 2
I will not share my glory with anyone else! 3
37:35 I will shield this city and rescue it for the sake of my reputation and because of my promise to David my servant.”’” 4
43:25 I, I am the one who blots out your rebellious deeds for my sake;
your sins I do not remember.
