Who is a God like unto thee,
that pardoneth iniquity,
and passeth by transgressions?
Thou retainest not thine anger
for ever because thou
dost delight in mercy.
Thou wilt turn again,
thou wilt have compassion on us;
thou wilt subdue our iniquities;
and thou wilt cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea.
~Micah 7:18-19
