Micah 7:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ They will crawl in the dust like a snake.
    They will shake with fear.
They will crawl on the ground
    like insects crawling from their holes.
They will come trembling to you, Lord our God.
    They will tremble in fear before you.
¹⁸ There is no God like you.
    You forgive people who are guilty of sin.
You don’t look at the sins of your people
    who are left alive.
You, Lord, will not stay angry forever.
    You enjoy being kind.
¹⁹ Lord, you will have mercy on us again.
    You will conquer our sins.
You will throw away all our sins
    into the deepest sea.
