The People’s Praise

16 The nations will see and be ashamed of their lack of strength.
    They will place their hand over their mouth.
    Their ears will be deaf.
17 They will lick up dust like a snake,
    like the things that creep on the earth.
    They will come from their hiding places, shaking with fear.
    They will come trembling to the Lord our God,
    and they will be afraid in your presence.

18 Who is a God like you, who forgives guilt,
    and who passes over the rebellion of the survivors from his inheritance?
    He does not hold onto his anger forever.
    He delights in showing mercy.
