Psalms 103:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 103:10

8 ^aThe Lord is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

9 ^aHe will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.

10 ^aHe has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He ^aremoved our transgressions from us.

13 ^aAs a father pities his children,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him.
