18 Who is a God like unto thee, that taketh away iniquity, and [a]passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage! He retaineth not his wrath forever, because mercy pleaseth him.

19 He will turn again, and have compassion upon us: he will subdue our iniquities, and cast all [b]their sins into the bottom of the sea.

20 Thou wilt perform thy [c]truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as thou hast sworn unto our fathers in old time.
