New Revised Standard Version
they refused to obey, and were not mindful of the wonders that you performed among them; but they stiffened their necks and determined to return to their slavery in Egypt. But you are a God ready to forgive, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and you did not forsake them.

Contemporary English Version

But thou, a forgiving God, gracious, and merciful, longsuffering, and full of compassion, didst not forsake them.
