< Psalms 103 >
1 Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul; all that is within me, bless His holy name.
A Psalme of David. My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and all that is within me, prayse his holy Name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all His kind deeds—
My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and forget not all his benefites.
3 He who forgives all your iniquities and heals all your diseases,
Which forgiueth all thine iniquitie, and healeth all thine infirmities.
4 who redeems your life from the Pit and crowns you with loving devotion and compassion,
Which redeemeth thy life from the graue, and crowneth thee with mercy and compassions.
5 who satisfies you with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Which satisfieth thy mouth with good things: and thy youth is renued like the eagles.
6 The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.
The Lord executeth righteousnes and iudgement to all that are oppressed.
7 He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the people of Israel.
He made his wayes knowen vnto Moses, and his workes vnto the children of Israel.
8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion.
The Lord is full of compassion and mercie, slowe to anger and of great kindnesse.
9 He will not always accuse us, nor harbor His anger forever.
He will not alway chide, neither keepe his anger for euer.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins or repaid us according to our iniquities.
He hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes, nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His loving devotion for those who fear Him.
For as high as the heauen is aboue ye earth, so great is his mercie toward them that feare him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
As farre as the East is from the West: so farre hath he remooued our sinnes from vs.
13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.
As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that feare him.
14 For He knows our frame; He is mindful that we are dust.
For he knoweth whereof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass— he blooms like a flower of the field;
The dayes of man are as grasse: as a flowre of the fielde, so florisheth he.
16 when the wind passes over, it vanishes, and its place remembers it no more.
For the winde goeth ouer it, and it is gone, and the place thereof shall knowe it no more.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting the loving devotion of the LORD extends to those who fear Him, and His righteousness to their children’s children—
But the louing kindnesse of the Lord endureth for euer and euer vpon them that feare him, and his righteousnes vpon childrens children,
18 to those who keep His covenant and remember to obey His precepts.
Vnto them that keepe his couenant, and thinke vpon his commandements to doe them.
19 The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all.
The Lord hath prepared his throne in heauen, and his Kingdome ruleth ouer all.
20 Bless the LORD, all His angels mighty in strength who carry out His word, who hearken to the voice of His command.
Prayse the Lord, ye his Angels, that excell in strength, that doe his commandement in obeying the voyce of his worde.
21 Bless the LORD, all His hosts, you servants who do His will.
Prayse the Lord, all ye his hostes, ye his seruants that doe his pleasure.
22 Bless the LORD, all His works in all places of His dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
Prayse the Lord, all ye his workes, in all places of his dominion: my soule, prayse thou the Lord.
