20None of their vnrighteous deeds are hid from him, but all their sinnes are before the Lord: 21But the Lord being gracious, and knowing his workemanship, neither left nor forsooke them, but spared them. 22The almes of a man is as a signet with him, and he will keep the good deedes of man, as the apple of the eye, and giue repentance to his sonnes and daughters. 23Afterward he will rise vp and reward them, and render their recompense vpon their heads. 24But vnto them that repent, he granted them returne, and comforted those that faile in patience.
