Hi,
"[How does HaShem employ mercy in judgment, as the Torah says ?]
"R' Elazar said: He hides sin [i.e. overlooking it].
"R' Yosi b"R' Chanina said: He elevates that side of the scale [i.e. decreasing the weight assigned to it]."
(Talmud, Arachin 8b, as explained by Rashi there; but note Rashi Rosh HaShanah 17a and Maharsha to Arachin 8b)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
