Psalm 103:8-14 (BCP 2019)

8 The LORD is full of compassion and mercy, *
  long-suffering and of great goodness.

9 He will not always chide us, *
  neither will he keep his anger for ever.

10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, *
  nor rewarded us according to our wickedness.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, *
  so great is his mercy also toward those who fear him.

12 As far as the east is from the west, *
  so far has he set our sins from us.

13 As a father pities his own children, *
  so is the LORD merciful to those who fear him.

14 For he knows whereof we are made; *
  he remembers that we are but dust.
