OET (OET-RV) ⇔ What other God is there like you, who takes away sin?

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
(Occurrence 0) Who is a God like you—who takes … inheritance?
(Some words not found in UHB: who? god like,you lifting/taking iniquity and,passing on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in transgression of,remnant_of inheritance_of,his not retain to,forever anger_of,his that/for/because/then/when delights showing_clemency he/it )
Micah is emphasizing that there is no God like Yahweh. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “I know that there is no God like you, who takes … inheritance.”
(Occurrence 0) the remnant of his inheritance
(Some words not found in UHB: who? god like,you lifting/taking iniquity and,passing on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in transgression of,remnant_of inheritance_of,his not retain to,forever anger_of,his that/for/because/then/when delights showing_clemency he/it )
Alternate translation: “those of his chosen people who have survived his punishment”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
(Occurrence 0) you … of the remnant of his inheritance? He does not keep his anger forever, because he delights in his covenant faithfulness.
(Some words not found in UHB: who? god like,you lifting/taking iniquity and,passing on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in transgression of,remnant_of inheritance_of,his not retain to,forever anger_of,his that/for/because/then/when delights showing_clemency he/it )
Here the words “his” and “he” can be stated in second person. Alternate translation: “you … of the remnant of your inheritance, who do not keep your anger forever, because you delight in your covenant faithfulness?” or “you … of the remnant of your inheritance? You do not keep your anger forever, because you delights in your covenant faithfulness.”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
(Occurrence 0) he delights in his covenant faithfulness
(Some words not found in UHB: who? god like,you lifting/taking iniquity and,passing on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in transgression of,remnant_of inheritance_of,his not retain to,forever anger_of,his that/for/because/then/when delights showing_clemency he/it )
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word faithfulness, you can express the same idea with a verbal form such as “faithful.” Alternate translation: “he delights in being faithful to his covenant” or “he delights in being faithful to his people”

Alternate translation: “does not stay angry”
7:1-20 Hopeless deception and corruption permeated God’s people (7:1-6); God’s mercy, however, would triumph and Israel would be restored (7:11-13). God’s mercy, compassion, and unfailing love would prevail (7:14-20). Micah mourned his people’s condition and looked to the Lord for help (7:7-10).
