Many ancient manuscripts read for we have not been consumed, with the writer and the people as the subject. The ULT follows that reading. Other ancient manuscripts read “his steadfast love has not ceased,” with the steadfast love of Yahweh as the subject. If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to use the reading that it uses. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the reading of the ULT.
