Read Micah 7:19 in the NABRE onlineHe will turn again, and have mercy on us: he will put away our iniquities: and thou wilt cast all our sins into the depth of the sea.
Reflection
You will hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea. The verb is violent — hurled, not placed. God throws your guilt where no one can reach it, and the sea has no bottom in the image. The disposal is permanent.
