< Psalms 103 >

1 Of David. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.
A Psalme of David. My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and all that is within me, prayse his holy Name.
2 Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.
My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and forget not all his benefites.
3 He has forgiveness for all your sins; he takes away all your diseases;
Which forgiueth all thine iniquitie, and healeth all thine infirmities.
4 He keeps back your life from destruction, crowning you with mercy and grace.
Which redeemeth thy life from the graue, and crowneth thee with mercy and compassions.
5 He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.
Which satisfieth thy mouth with good things: and thy youth is renued like the eagles.
6 The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.
The Lord executeth righteousnes and iudgement to all that are oppressed.
7 He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.
He made his wayes knowen vnto Moses, and his workes vnto the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.
The Lord is full of compassion and mercie, slowe to anger and of great kindnesse.
9 His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.
He will not alway chide, neither keepe his anger for euer.
10 He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
He hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes, nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.
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 put our sins 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 pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.
As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that feare him.
14 For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
For he knoweth whereof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.
The dayes of man are as grasse: as a flowre of the fielde, so florisheth he.
16 The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.
For the winde goeth ouer it, and it is gone, and the place thereof shall knowe it no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;
But the louing kindnesse of the Lord endureth for euer and euer vpon them that feare him, and his righteousnes vpon childrens children,
18 If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.
Vnto them that keepe his couenant, and thinke vpon his commandements to doe them.
19 The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.
The Lord hath prepared his throne in heauen, and his Kingdome ruleth ouer all.
20 Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.
Prayse the Lord, ye his Angels, that excell in strength, that doe his commandement in obeying the voyce of his worde.
21 Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.
Prayse the Lord, all ye his hostes, ye his seruants that doe his pleasure.
22 Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
Prayse the Lord, all ye his workes, in all places of his dominion: my soule, prayse thou the Lord.
