Psalms 103:8-17

8The LORDH3068 is fullH7227 of compassion and graciousH2587, slowH750 to angerH639, and plenteous in mercyH3068.

9He will notH3808 alwaysH5769 chide; neitherH3808 will he keepH5201 his anger for everH5769.

10He hath notH3808 dealtH1580 with usH5921 afterH5921 our sinsH2399, norH3808 rewardedH1580 usH5921 afterH5921 our iniquitiesH5771.

11For as the heavenH8064 is highH1361 aboveH5921 the earthH776, soH3588 greatH1396 is his mercy towardH5921 them that fearH3373 him.

12As farH7368 as the eastH4217 is from the westH4628, soH4480 farH7368 hath he removedH7368 our transgressionsH6588 from usH4480.

13Like as a fatherH1 pitieth his childrenH1121, soH5921 the LORDH3068 pitieth them that fearH3373 him.

14For he knoweth our frameH3336; he remembereth that weH587 are dustH6083.

15As for manH582, his daysH3117 are as grassH2682; as a flowerH6731 of the fieldH7704, soH3651 he flourisheth.

16For the windH7307 passeth over it, and it is goneH369; and the placeH4725 thereof shall knowH5234 it noH3808 moreH5750.

17But the mercyH3068 of the LORDH3068 is from everlastingH5769 to everlastingH5769 uponH5921 them that fearH3373 him, and his righteousnessH6666 unto children’sH1121 childrenH1121;
