7:14 The mercy of God of Israel

14Shepherd your people with your staff

the flock of your inheritance.

They live alone in a forest,

surrounded by pastureland.

Let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the old days.

15Just like in the days when you were rescued out of Egypt,

I’ll display miracles to them.

16The nations will see and be ashamed of all their power.

They’ll put their hands over their mouths

and act like their ears are deaf.

17They’ll lick the dust like a snake

like creatures that crawl on the earth.

They’ll be trembling as they come out of their fortresses.

They’ll come with fear to you, our God Yahweh,

and they’ll be afraid because of you.


18What other God is there like you, who takes away sin?

Who forgives the disobedience of the remnant of his inherited people?

He doesn’t stay angry forever,

because he happily demonstrates his loyal commitment.

19You’ll have compassion on us yet again.

You’ll wipe away our disobedience.

You will throw all our sins into the deepest parts of the sea.

20You’ll give truth to Yakob (Jacob)

and loyal commitment to Abraham,

as you promised to our ancestors long ago.
