Psalm 103:11

Bible in Basic English 1965

For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.

See the chapter Copy

For your mercy is great, stretching up to the heavens, and your righteousness goes up to the clouds.

His mercy is for all generations in whom is the fear of him.

But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;

Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens, and your strong purpose is as high as the clouds.

The heaven is high and the earth is deep, and the hearts of kings may not be searched out.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

For you have said, Mercy will be made strong for ever; my faith will be unchanging in the heavens.

Is not God as high as heaven? and see the stars, how high they are!

You will keep them safe in your house from the designs of man; in the secret of your tent will you keep them from angry tongues.

For great is his mercy to us, and his faith is unchanging for ever. Praise be to the Lord.
