²⁵ I, even I, am he who takes away your sins; and I will no longer keep your evil doings in mind.

¹² And I will have mercy on their evil-doing, and I will not keep their sins in mind.

¹⁷ And I will keep no more memory of their sins and of their evil-doings.

³⁴ And no longer will they be teaching every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying, Get knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord: for they will have my forgiveness for their evil-doing, and their sin will go from my memory for ever.

¹⁸ Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool?

¹⁸ Who is a God like you, offering forgiveness for evil-doing and overlooking the sins of the rest of his heritage? he does not keep his wrath for ever, because his delight is in mercy.

¹⁹ He will again have pity on us; he will put our sins under his feet: and you will send all our sins down into the heart of the sea.

²² I have put your evil doings out of my mind like a thick cloud, and your sins like a mist: come back to me; for I have taken up your cause.

⁷ Do not keep in mind my sins when I was young, or my wrongdoing: let your memory of me be full of mercy, O Lord, because of your righteousness.

⁸ Do not keep in mind against us the sins of our fathers; let your mercy come to us quickly, for we have been made very low.

⁹ Give us help, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; take us out of danger and give us forgiveness for our sins, because of your name.

⁷ Why does this man say such things? he has no respect for God: from whom does forgiveness come but from God only?

²⁰ And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace:

¹⁹ So then, let your hearts be changed and be turned to God, so that your sins may be completely taken away, and times of blessing may come from the Lord;

¹⁷ See, in place of peace my soul had bitter sorrow. but you have kept back my soul from the underworld; for you have put all my sins out of your memory.

¹¹ Because of your name, O Lord, let me have forgiveness for my sin, which is very great.

¹¹ I, even I, am the Lord; and there is no saviour but me.

⁹ Let your face be turned from my wrongdoing, and take away all my sins.

²⁰ In those days and in that time, says the Lord, when the evil-doing of Israel is looked for, there will be nothing; and in Judah no sins will be seen: for I will have forgiveness for those whom I will keep safe.

²² For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: I am doing this, not because of you, O children of Israel, but because of my holy name, which you have made unclean among the nations wherever you went.

¹⁴ And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out.

⁸ Truly you had no word of them, no knowledge of them; no news of them in the past had come to your ears; because I saw how false was your behaviour, and that your heart was turned against me from your earliest days.

⁹ Because of my name I will put away my wrath, and for my praise I will keep myself from cutting you off.

¹⁰ See, I have been testing you for myself like silver; I have put you through the fire of trouble.

⁹ And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean before the eyes of the nations among whom they were, and before whose eyes I gave them knowledge of myself, by taking them out of the land of Egypt.

⁸ Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care;

²² And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out.

³⁵ For I will keep this town safe, for my honour, and for the honour of my servant David.

⁶ To the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely gave to us in the Loved One:

³² Not because of you am I doing it, says the Lord; let it be clear to you, and be shamed and made low because of your ways, O children of Israel.
