וַיֹּאמֶר אֲנִי אַֽעֲבִיר כָּל-טוּבִי עַל-פָּנֶיךָ וְקָרָאתִֽי בְשֵׁם יְהוָה לְפָנֶיךָ וְחַנֹּתִי אֶת-אֲשֶׁר אָחֹן וְרִֽחַמְתִּי אֶת-אֲשֶׁר אֲרַחֵֽם׃

And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.

Romans 9:16

ἄρα οὖν οὐ τοῦ θέλοντος οὐδὲ τοῦ τρέχοντος ἀλλὰ τοῦ ἐλεοῦντος θεοῦ

So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

Micah 7:18

מִי-אֵל כָּמוֹךָ נֹשֵׂא עָוֹן וְעֹבֵר עַל-פֶּשַׁע לִשְׁאֵרִית נַחֲלָתוֹ לֹא-הֶחֱזִיק לָעַד אַפּוֹ כִּֽי-חָפֵץ חֶסֶד הֽוּא׃

Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.

Romans 9:18

ἄρα οὖν ὃν θέλει ἐλεεῖ ὃν δὲ θέλει σκληρύνει

Therefore hath he on mercy whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

Exodus 34:6

וַיַּֽעֲבֹר יְהוָה׀ עַל-פָּנָיו וַיִּקְרָא יְהוָה׀ יְהוָה אֵל רַחוּם וְחַנּוּן אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם וְרַב-חֶסֶד וֶֽאֱמֶֽת׃

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

Isaiah 27:11

בִּיבֹשׁ קְצִירָהּ תִּשָּׁבַרְנָה נָשִׁים בָּאוֹת מְאִירוֹת אוֹתָהּ כִּי לֹא עַם-בִּינוֹת הוּא עַל-כֵּן לֹֽא-יְרַחֲמֶנּוּ עֹשֵׂהוּ וְיֹצְרוֹ לֹא יְחֻנֶּֽנּוּ׃

When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
