Psalm 103:6-18
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
II
6 The Lord does righteous deeds,
brings justice to all the oppressed.(A)
7 He made known his ways to Moses,
to the Israelites his deeds.
8 Merciful and gracious is the Lord,
slow to anger, abounding in mercy.(B)
9 He will not always accuse,
and nurses no lasting anger;
10 He has not dealt with us as our sins merit,
nor requited us as our wrongs deserve.
III
11 For as the heavens tower over the earth,
so his mercy towers over those who fear him.(C)
12 As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our sins from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.
14 For he knows how we are formed,
remembers that we are dust.(D)
15 As for man, his days are like the grass;
he blossoms like a flower in the field.(E)
16 A wind sweeps over it and it is gone;
its place knows it no more.
17 But the Lord’s mercy is from age to age,
toward those who fear him.
His salvation is for the children’s children
18 of those who keep his covenant,
and remember to carry out his precepts.

Psalm 103:6-18
New International Version
7 He made known(C) his ways(D) to Moses,
his deeds(E) to the people of Israel:
8 The Lord is compassionate and gracious,(F)
slow to anger, abounding in love.
9 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)
15 The life of mortals is like grass,(O)
they flourish like a flower(P) of the field;
16 the wind blows(Q) over it and it is gone,
and its place(R) 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(S)—
18 with those who keep his covenant(T)
and remember(U) to obey his precepts.(V)
