Psalms 103

1 To David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and bless his holy name, all that is within me.

For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.

2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all his recompenses.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.

3 He forgives all your iniquities. He heals all your infirmities.

Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.

4 He redeems your life from destruction. He crowns you with mercy and compassion.

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.

5 He satisfies your desire with good things. Your youth will be renewed like that of the eagle.

Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.

6 The Lord accomplishes mercies, and his judgment is for all who patiently endure injuries.

The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.

7 He has made his ways known to Moses, his will to the sons of Israel.

He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.

8 The Lord is compassionate and merciful, patient and full of mercy.

The ford is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.

9 He will not be angry forever, and he will not threaten for eternity.

He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.

10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, and he has not repaid us according to our iniquities.

He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11 For according to the height of the heavens above the earth, so has he reinforced his mercy toward those who fear him.

For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.

12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our iniquities from us.

As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.

13 As a father is compassionate to his sons, so has the Lord been compassionate to those who fear him.

As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:

14 For he knows our form. He has called to mind that we are dust.

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

15 Man: his days are like hay. Like the flower of the field, so will he flourish.

Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.

16 For the spirit in him will pass away, and it will not remain, and he will know his place no longer.

For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.

17 But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity, and even unto eternity, upon those who fear him. And his justice is with the sons of the sons,

But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,

18 with those who serve his covenant and have been mindful of his commandments by doing them.

To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.

19 The Lord has prepared his throne in heaven, and his kingdom will rule over all.

The Lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.

20 Bless the Lord, all you his Angels: powerful in virtue, doing his word, in order to heed the voice of his discourse.

Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.

21 Bless the Lord, all his hosts: his ministers who do his will.

Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.

22 Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul.

Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.
