Psalms 103:3-13

3 who 1forgives all your iniquity, who 2heals all your diseases,
4 who 3redeems your life from the pit, who 4crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who 5satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like 6the eagle's.
6 The LORD works 7righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his 8ways to Moses, his 9acts to the people of Israel.
8 The LORD is 10merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 11He will not always chide, nor will he 12keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us 13according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For 14as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his 15steadfast love toward 16those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west, so far does he 17remove our transgressions from us.
13 As 18a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion 19to those who fear him.
