Psalms 103
1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all [that is] within me, [bless] his holy name.
By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts — His Holy Name.
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his praises:
Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,
3 who forgives all your transgressions, who heals all your diseases;
Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,
4 who redeems your life from corruption; who crowns you with mercy and compassion;
Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee — kindness and mercies,
5 who satisfies your desire with good things: [so that] your youth shall be renewed like [that] of the eagle.
Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.
6 The Lord executes mercy and judgement for all that are injured.
Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses, his will to the children of Israel.
He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.
8 The Lord is compassionate and pitiful, longsuffering, and full of mercy.
Merciful and gracious [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.
9 He will not be always angry; neither will he be wrathful for ever.
Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor recompensed us according to our iniquities.
Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, the Lord has [so] increased his mercy towards them that fear him.
For, as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, [so far] has he removed our transgressions from us.
As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.
13 As a father pities [his] children, the Lord pities them that fear him.
As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.
14 For he knows our frame: remember that we are dust.
For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust.
15 [As for] man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so shall he flourish.
Mortal man! as grass [are] his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;
16 For the wind passes over it, and it shall not be; and it shall know its place no more.
For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from generation to generation upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to children's children;
And the kindness of Jehovah [Is] from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,
18 to them that keep his covenant, and remember his commandments to do them.
To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.
19 The Lord has prepared his throne in the heaven; and his kingdom rules over all.
Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.
20 Bless the Lord, all you his angels, mighty in strength, who perform his bidding, [ready] to listen to the voice of his words.
Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power — doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.
21 Bless the Lord, all you his hosts; [you] ministers of his that do his will.
Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers — doing His pleasure.
22 Bless the Lord, all his works, in every place of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
