But you have burdened me with your sins; you have made me weary with your iniquities. I, I am the one who blots out your transgressions for my sake, and I will not remember your sins. Take me to court; let us enter into judgment together. You, {make an account} so that you may be in the right. Your first ancestor sinned, and your {representatives} transgressed against me. And I profaned [the] princes of [the] sanctuary, and I gave Jacob to destruction, and Israel to reviling.

"This [is] the covenant that I will decree for them after those days, says the Lord: I am putting my laws on their hearts, and I will write them on their minds."

Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion, and to you [the] vow shall be fulfilled. O [you who] hear prayer, to you all flesh will come. Iniquities prevail over me. As for our transgressions, you will {forgive} them.

Yahweh [is] compassionate and gracious, {slow to anger} and abundant in loyal love. He does not dispute continually, nor keep [his anger] forever. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us according to our iniquities. read more.
For as [the] heavens are high above the earth, [so] his loyal love prevails over those who fear him. As far as east [is] from west, [so] he has removed far from us [the guilt of] our transgressions.
