Psalm 103:13-18
English Standard Version
Psalm 103:13-18
English Standard Version
13 As (A)a father shows compassion to his children,
so the Lord shows compassion (B)to those who fear him.
14 For he knows our frame;[a]
he (C)remembers that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are like (D)grass;
he flourishes like (E)a flower of the field;
16 for (F)the wind passes over it, and (G)it is gone,
and (H)its place knows it no more.
17 But (I)the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on (J)those who fear him,
and his righteousness to (K)children's children,
18 to those who (L)keep his covenant
and (M)remember to do his commandments.

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 his righteousness with their children’s children(H)—
18 with those who keep his covenant(I)
and remember(J) to obey his precepts.(K)
