But I will make an extermination among all the nations to which I scattered you;+

However, you I will not exterminate.+

I will discipline* you to the proper degree,

And I will by no means leave you unpunished.”+

18 Who is a God like you,

Pardoning error and passing over the transgression+ of the remnant of his inheritance?+

He will not hold onto his anger forever,

For he delights in loyal love.+
