Micah 7:16-18

Expanded Bible

¹⁶ When the nations see those miracles,
    they will ·no longer brag [be ashamed/disappointed] about their power.
They will put their hands over their mouths,
    ·refusing to listen [and their ears will be deaf].
¹⁷ They will ·crawl in the [^Llick] dust like a snake,
    like ·insects crawling [or serpents; ^Lcrawling things] on the ground.
They will come trembling from their ·holes [or strongholds] to the Lord our God
    and will turn in fear before you.
¹⁸ There is no God like you.
    You forgive those who are guilty of sin;
you ·don’t look at the sins [pass over the transgressions] of ·your people
    who are left alive [^Lthe remnant of your inheritance].
You will not stay angry forever,
    because you ·enjoy [delight in] ·being kind [mercy; lovingkindness].
