⁸ He is mindful of his covenant forever,
    of the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,

¹⁸ Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity
    and passing over the transgression
    of the remnant of his possession?
He does not retain his anger forever
    because he delights in showing steadfast love.^(A)
19 He will again have compassion upon us;
    he will tread our iniquities under foot.
You will cast all our^[a] sins
    into the depths of the sea.^(B)
20 You will show faithfulness to Jacob
    and steadfast love to Abraham,
as you have sworn to our ancestors
    from the days of old.^(C)
