For I will be merciful toward their wrongdoings, and I will not remember their sins [any] longer."

Lord, they live by them, and the life of my spirit belongs to all among them. And restore me to health and keep me alive! Look! Bitterness was bitter to me for peace. And you were the one who loved my life from [the] pit of destruction, for you have cast all my sins behind your back.
