³⁸ Yet he was merciful;^(A)
    he forgave^(B) their iniquities^(C)
    and did not destroy them.
Time after time he restrained his anger^(D)
    and did not stir up his full wrath.

³⁴ No longer will they teach^(A) their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know^(B) me,
    from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive^(C) their wickedness
    and will remember their sins^(D) no more.”
