Has Godforgottento be gracious,Orhas He in angerwithdrawnHis compassion?Selah.
Remember,O LORD,Your compassionand Your lovingkindnesses,For they have been from of old.
You, O LORD,will not withholdYour compassionfrom me; Your lovingkindnessand Your truthwill continuallypreserveme.
Be graciousto me, O God,according to Your lovingkindness;According to the greatnessof Your compassionblotout my transgressions.
Whydo you say,O Jacob,and assert,O Israel,"My wayis hiddenfrom the LORD,And the justicedue me escapesthe noticeof my God"?
Lookdownfrom heavenand seefrom Your holyand glorioushabitation;Whereare Your zealand Your mightydeeds?The stirringsof Your heartand Your compassionare restrainedtowardme.
"Godis not a man,that He should lie,Nora sonof man,that He should repent;Has He said,and will He not doit? Or has He spoken,and will He not makeit good?
For Godhas shutup allin disobediencesothat He may show mercyto all.
But whoeverhasthe world'sgoods,and seeshis brotherin needand closeshis heartagainsthim, howdoes the loveof Godabidein him?
