Psalm 103:8-14 - Heartlight

⁸The LORD is compassionate and gracious,

slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion.

⁹He will not always accuse us,

nor harbor His anger forever.

¹⁰He has not dealt with us according to our sins

or repaid us according to our iniquities.

¹¹For as high as the heavens are above the earth,

so great is His loving devotion for those who fear Him.

¹²As far as the east is from the west,

so far has He removed our transgressions from us.

¹³As a father has compassion on his children,

so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.

¹⁴For He knows our frame;

He is mindful that we are dust.

— Psalm 103:8-14
