The Lord works righteousness(A)
    and justice for all the oppressed.(B)

He made known(C) his ways(D) to Moses,
    his deeds(E) to the people of Israel:
The Lord is compassionate and gracious,(F)
    slow to anger, abounding in love.
He will not always accuse,
    nor will he harbor his anger forever;(G)
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve(H)
    or repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
    so great is his love(I) for those who fear him;(J)
12 as far as the east is from the west,
    so far has he removed our transgressions(K) from us.

13 As a father has compassion(L) on his children,
    so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
14 for he knows how we are formed,(M)
    he remembers that we are dust.(N)

The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.

14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
