Micah 7

18 Who is a God like You,

who pardons iniquity

and passes over the transgression

of the remnant of His inheritance —

who does not retain His anger forever,

because He delights in loving devotion?*7:18 Forms of the Hebrew chesed are translated here and in most cases throughout the Scriptures as loving devotion; the range of meaning includes love, goodness, kindness, faithfulness, and mercy, as well as loyalty to a covenant.
