12. As far as the east is from the west—that is how far he has removed our rebellious acts from himself.
13. As a father has compassion for his children,so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him.
14. He certainly knows what we are made of.He bears in mind that we are dust.
15. Human life is as short-lived as grass.It blossoms like a flower in the field.
16. When the wind blows over the flower, it disappears,and there is no longer any sign of it.
