Psalms 103
1 For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.
By David. Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.
Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits,
3 Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.
who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.
who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies,
5 Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.
who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.
Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.
He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.
8 The ford is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.
Yahweh is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.
9 He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.
He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.
10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.
11 For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:
Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.
14 For he knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust:
For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.
15 Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.
As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16 For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,
But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,
18 To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.
to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.
19 The Lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.
Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.
Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.
21 Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.
Praise Yahweh, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.
22 Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.
Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul!
