Deuturonomy 4:31

For a merciful (compassionate – Hebr. rachom) God (El) is the Lord (Yahweh) your God (Elohim). He will not abandon (let go of) you or destroy you. He will not forget the covenant with your fathers, which he swore [to keep].
[The word merciful describes the strong love a parent feels for their child. The word also shares its root with the word for womb rechem. This gives the grace in this expression an additional dimension of being nurturing and protective in the same way that the womb is the protection of the small, helpless, and defenseless child.]
