Psalm 103:8-14

Amplified Bible

⁸ 
The Lord is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger and abounding in compassion and lovingkindness.^(A)
9 
He will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.
¹⁰ 
He has not dealt with us according to our sins [as we deserve],
Nor rewarded us [with punishment] according to our wickedness.
¹¹ 
For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence].
¹² 
As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
¹³ 
Just as a father loves his children,
So the Lord loves those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence].
¹⁴ 
For He knows our [mortal] frame;
He remembers that we are [merely] dust.
