"because the magnificence of thy glory is unendurable and irresistible the wrath of thy threatening against sinners:"
Prayer of Manasseh 1:5

In context

3that hast bound the sea with the word of thy commandment; that hast closed the abyss and sealed it with thy fearful and glorious name;

4whom all things revere and tremble before the face of thy power,

5because the magnificence of thy glory is unendurable and irresistible the wrath of thy threatening against sinners:

6the mercy of thy promise is both immeasurable and inscrutable;

7for thou art the Lord most high, compassionate, longsuffering, and most merciful, repenting of the evils of men. Thou, Lord, according to the abundance of thy goodness, hast proclaimed repentance and forgiveness to those that have sinned against thee, and in the multitude of thy kindnesses thou hast decreed for sinners repentance unto salvation.
