And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.After returning the Israelites from their captivity in Babylon, God promises that he will cleanse/forgive them of all their wrongdoings.
~ King James version ~
Tao isn't in the cleaning business.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
Tao neither makes demands nor issues pardons. If you seek forgiveness for ill will, first forgive yourself and then forgive others who you feel have wronged you.
