God's Steadfast Love and Compassion

m Who is a God like you, n pardoning iniquity
and passing over transgression
n for the remnant of his inheritance?
o He does not retain his anger forever,
because he delights in steadfast love.

q he will tread our iniquities underfoot.
r You will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea.

s You will show faithfulness to Jacob
and steadfast love to Abraham,
t as you have sworn to our fathers
from the days of old.
