12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children,
So Yahweh has compassion on those who fear Him.
14 For He Himself knows our form;
He remembers that we are but dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass;
As a flower of the field, so he flowers.
16 When the wind has passed over it, it is no more,
And its place acknowledges it no longer.
17 But the lovingkindness of Yahweh is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him,
And His righteousness to children’s children,
