The Israelis confessed that they had sinned against the Lord. Their safety was in their humility. We read in Bible History that, when the People of the Lord (the Israelis) sinned against the Lord, but did not confess and repent, they suffered the most painful and difficult of times. When they confessed and repented they found the Mercy of God and His Forgiveness.
