Micah 7:18-20
God’s Steadfast Love and Compassion
18 aWho is a God like you, bpardoning iniquityand passing over transgression
cfor the remnant of his inheritance?
dHe does not retain his anger forever,
because he delights in steadfast love.
19He will eagain have compassion on us;
fhe will tread our iniquities underfoot.
gYou will cast all our ▼
▼Hebrew their
sinsinto the depths of the sea.
20 iYou will show faithfulness to Jacob
and steadfast love to Abraham,
jas you have sworn to our fathers
from the days of old.

47Therefore I tell you, her sins, owhich are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” 48And he said to her, p“Your sins are forgiven.” 49Then those who were at table with him began to say among ▼▼Or to
themselves, r“Who is this, who even forgives sins?” 50And he said to the woman, s“Your faith has saved you; tgo in peace.”
