Amos7:3
3 The LORD repented for this: It shall not be , saith the LORD.
This spoke after the manner of man, is to be understood as becomes the Immutability and omniscience of God, what a man when he repenteth doth, desisting from the thing, so God desisting or suspending his own Act doth tell us he repenteth.
