The God Who Forgives

18 What god can compare with you,
    the God who takes away guilt
and forgives the transgressions
    of the remnant of your people?
You will not allow your anger to fester forever,
    for your delight is in bestowing mercy.
19 You will again show us compassion
    and wash away our guilt;

    into the depths of the sea.
20 You will show faithfulness to Jacob
    and unswerving mercy to Abraham
as you swore to our ancestors
    from the days of old.
