who (A)forgives all your iniquity,
    who (B)heals all your diseases,
who (C)redeems your life from the pit,
    who (D)crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
who (E)satisfies you with good
    so that your youth is renewed like (F)the eagle's.

The Lord works (G)righteousness
    and justice for all who are oppressed.
He made known his (H)ways to Moses,
    his (I)acts to the people of Israel.
The Lord is (J)merciful and gracious,
    slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
(K)He will not always chide,
    nor will he (L)keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us (M)according to our sins,
    nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For (N)as high as the heavens are above the earth,
    so great is his (O)steadfast love toward (P)those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west,
    so far does he (Q)remove our transgressions from us.
