God’s Compassion and Steadfast Love
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)
