they never rest their feet.

Who is a God like You,
removing iniquity and passing over rebellion
for the remnant of His inheritance?

He will vanquish our iniquities.
You will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea.

and He will be satisfied with His knowledge.
My righteous Servant will justify many,
and He will carry their iniquities.

For I will be merciful to their wrongdoing,
and I will never again remember their sins.
