Psalms 103

¹Bless Jehovah, O my soul; And all that is within me, blesshis holy name.

²Bless Jehovah, O my soul, And forget not all his benefits:

³Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Who healeth all thy diseases;

⁴Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; Who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

⁵Who satisfieth thy desire with good things, So that thy youth is renewed like the eagle.

⁶Jehovah executeth righteous acts, And judgments for all that are oppressed.

⁷He made known his ways unto Moses, His doings unto the children of Israel.

⁸Jehovah is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness.

⁹He will not always chide; Neither will he keephis angerfor ever.

¹⁰He hath not dealt with us after our sins, Nor rewarded us after our iniquities.

¹¹For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is his lovingkindness toward them that fear him.

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

¹³Like as a father pitieth his children, So Jehovah pitieth them that fear him.

¹⁴For he knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.

¹⁵As for man, his days are as grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

¹⁶For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the place thereof shall know it no more.

¹⁷But the lovingkindness of Jehovah is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, And his righteousness unto children’s children;

¹⁸To such as keep his covenant, And to those that remember his precepts to do them.

¹⁹Jehovah hath established his throne in the heavens; And his kingdom ruleth over all.

²⁰Bless Jehovah, ye his angels, That are mighty in strength, that fulfil his word, Hearkening unto the voice of his word.

²¹Bless Jehovah, all ye his hosts, Ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

²²Bless Jehovah, all ye his works, In all places of his dominion: Bless Jehovah, O my soul.

¹By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward partsHis Holy Name.

²Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,

³Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,

⁴Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning theekindness and mercies,

⁵Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

⁶Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

⁷He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.

⁸Merciful and gracious is Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

⁹Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.

¹⁰Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.

¹¹For, as the height of the heavens is above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.

¹²As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.

¹³As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

¹⁴For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we are dust.

¹⁵Mortal man! as grass are his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

¹⁶For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

¹⁷And the kindness of Jehovah Is from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

¹⁸To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.

¹⁹Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.

²⁰Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in powerdoing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.

²¹Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministersdoing His pleasure.

²²Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
