Psalms 130:3-4, 7
If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? But there is forgiveness with You, that You may be feared. O Israel, hope in the Lord; for with the Lord there is mercy, and with Him is abundant redemption.

God forgives, forgetting the wrongs of our sin. So we should fear Him who has the power to take vengeance on our sin, but chooses not to, and do so ourselves. This is our hope - mercy and redemption from our sin in place of what we deserve.
