¹⁷ They will lick dust^(A) like a snake,
    like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling^(B) out of their dens;
    they will turn in fear^(C) to the Lord our God
    and will be afraid of you.
¹⁸ Who is a God^(D) like you,
    who pardons sin^(E) and forgives^(F) the transgression
    of the remnant^(G) of his inheritance?^(H)
You do not stay angry^(I) forever
    but delight to show mercy.^(J)
19 You will again have compassion on us;
    you will tread our sins underfoot
    and hurl all our iniquities^(K) into the depths of the sea.^(L)
