6. The Lord executes righteous acts,and justice for all who are oppressed.
7. He made known his ways to Moses,his deeds to the children of Israel.
8. The Lord is merciful and gracious,slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.
9. He will not always accuse;neither will he stay angry forever.
10. He has not dealt with us according to our sins,nor repaid us for our iniquities.
11. For as the heavens are high above the earth,so great is his loving kindness towards those who fear him.
12. As far as the east is from the west,so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13. Like a father has compassion on his children,so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.
14. For he knows how we are made.He remembers that we are dust.
15. As for man, his days are like grass.As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone.Its place remembers it no more.
