New International Version (NIV)

13As a father has compassion on his children,

so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;

13Just as a father has compassion on his children,

So the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.

13Just as a father loves his children,

So the Lord loves those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence].

13As a father has compassion on his children,

so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.

13Like as a father pitieth his children,

So Jehovah pitieth them that fear him.

13As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that feare him.

13Like a father has compassion on his children,

so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.

13A father is tender and kind to his children.

In the same way, the Lord is tender and kind

to those who have respect for him.

13As a father is kind to his children,

the Lord is kind to us.

He is kind to people who worship him.

13As a father has mercy on sons, || YHWH has mercy on those fearing Him.
