Fire, water and government know nothing of mercy.

And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.

O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation. (Psalms 13:5)

For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
