Ps103:13-18 ESV
As a father shows compassion to his children,
so the Lord show’s compassion to those who fear him.
For He knows our frame,
He remembers that we are dust.
As for man, his days are like grass,
He flourishes like a flower of the field,
for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
and its place knows it no more.
But the steadfast love of the Lord
is from everlasting to everlasting
on those who fear him,
and His righteousness to children’s children,
to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
