and crowns you with love and compassion,

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

or repay us according to our iniquities.
Leader: 11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
All: 12 as far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
Leader: 13 As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;

he remembers that we are dust.
