Psalm 103
Praise for God\u2019s tender compassion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

II<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lord is compassion and love, *
slow to anger and rich in mercy.
His wrath will come to an end; *
he will not be angry for ever.
He does not treat us according to our sins *
nor repay us according to our faults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For as the heavens are high above the earth *
so strong is his love for those who fear him.
As far as the east is from the west *
so far does he remove our sins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a father has compassion on his sons, *
the Lord has pity on those who fear him;
for he knows of what we are made, *
he remembers that we are dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for man, his days are like grass; *
he flowers like the flower of the field;
the wind blows and he is gone *
and his place never sees him again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ant. As a father is gentle with his children, so is the Lord with those who revere him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ant. 3 Bless the Lord, all you his works!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17075,"template":"","rizors":[],"yoast_head":"\na father has compassion on his sons - Behold<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/behold.mt\/en\/talba-bis-salmi\/a-father-has-compassion-on-his-sons\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"a father has compassion on his sons - Behold\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Office of the reading, Wednesday 12th November 2025 Psalm 103Praise for God\u2019s tender compassion II The Lord is compassion and love, *slow to anger and rich in mercy.His wrath will come to an end; *he will not be angry for ever.He does not treat us according to our sins *nor repay us according to our faults...
