Micah 7:16-18
New Catholic Bible
16 The nations will see and be confounded
despite all their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths;
their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick the dust like snakes,
like reptiles that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling out of their strongholds
and turn in dread to behold the Lord, our God,
as they approach him in awe and terror.
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.
