²⁰ Yahweh said, I have pardoned according to your word:

²³ Therefore he said that he would destroy them, Had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, To turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn't destroy them.

¹⁸ Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, And passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, Because he delights in loving kindness.

¹⁹ He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot; And you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

²⁰ You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, As you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.

¹⁶ Confess your offenses to one another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. The effective, earnest prayer of a righteous man is powerfully effective.
