Psalm 102:10-21 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

10. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, and he has not repaid us according to our iniquities.

11. For according to the height of the heavens above the earth, so has he reinforced his mercy toward those who fear him.

12. As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our iniquities from us.

13. As a father is compassionate to his sons, so has the Lord been compassionate to those who fear him.

14. For he knows our form. He has called to mind that we are dust.

15. Man: his days are like hay. Like the flower of the field, so will he flourish.

16. For the spirit in him will pass away, and it will not remain, and he will know his place no longer.

17. But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity, and even unto eternity, upon those who fear him. And his justice is with the sons of the sons,

18. with those who serve his covenant and have been mindful of his commandments by doing them.

19. The Lord has prepared his throne in heaven, and his kingdom will rule over all.

20. Bless the Lord, all you his Angels: powerful in virtue, doing his word, in order to heed the voice of his discourse.

21. Bless the Lord, all his hosts: his ministers who do his will.
