To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever: / And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever: / Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever: / And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever: / And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever: / Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Bible
For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief: / Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
