18 Where is another God like you,
who pardons the guilt of the remnant,
overlooking the sins of his special people?
You will not stay angry with your people forever,
because you delight in showing unfailing love.

and throw them into the depths of the ocean!

as you promised to our ancestors Abraham and Jacob long ago.
