13. Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.
14. For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust.
15. As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16. When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its place acknowledges it no longer.
17. But the lovingkindness of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children's children,
18. To those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts to do them.
