Psalm 103:13-17
New Living Translation
13 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
14 For he knows how weak we are;
he remembers we are only dust.
15 Our days on earth are like grass;
like wildflowers, we bloom and die.
16 The wind blows, and we are gone—
as though we had never been here.
17 But the love of the Lord remains forever
with those who fear him.
His salvation extends to the children’s children
Psalm 103:13-17
New International Version
13 As a father has compassion(A) on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
14 for he knows how we are formed,(B)
he remembers that we are dust.(C)
15 The life of mortals is like grass,(D)
they flourish like a flower(E) of the field;
16 the wind blows(F) over it and it is gone,
and its place(G) remembers it no more.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting
the Lord’s love is with those who fear him,
and his righteousness with their children’s children(H)—
