Psalms 102:11

A church father on this verse
“My days have declined like a shadow. If my days, how much more my nights? that is, if the light, how much more the darkness? And I have withered like grass. For as grass, so man passes away, and is dried up.”
Jerome, 5th c. — Homily 28, on Psalm 101

9He will not be always angry; Neither will he be wrathful forever.

10He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor recompensed us according to our iniquities.

— Psalms 102:11 —

12As far as the east is from the west, So far has he removed our transgressions from us.

13As a father pities his children, The Lord pities them that fear him.
