Micah 7:17-19
New King James Version
17 They shall lick the (A)dust like a serpent;
(B)They shall crawl from their holes like [a]snakes of the earth.
(C)They shall be afraid of the Lord our God,
And shall fear because of You.
18 (D)Who is a God like You,
(E)Pardoning iniquity
And passing over the transgression of (F)the remnant of His heritage?
(G)He does not retain His anger forever,
Because He delights in (H)mercy.[b]
19 He will again have compassion on us,
And will subdue our iniquities.
You will cast all [c]our sins
Into the depths of the sea.

Micah 7:17-19
New International Version
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)
