Psalms 103
1 A Psalme of David. My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and all that is within me, prayse his holy Name.
To David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and bless his holy name, all that is within me.
2 My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and forget not all his benefites.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all his recompenses.
3 Which forgiueth all thine iniquitie, and healeth all thine infirmities.
He forgives all your iniquities. He heals all your infirmities.
4 Which redeemeth thy life from the graue, and crowneth thee with mercy and compassions.
He redeems your life from destruction. He crowns you with mercy and compassion.
5 Which satisfieth thy mouth with good things: and thy youth is renued like the eagles.
He satisfies your desire with good things. Your youth will be renewed like that of the eagle.
6 The Lord executeth righteousnes and iudgement to all that are oppressed.
The Lord accomplishes mercies, and his judgment is for all who patiently endure injuries.
7 He made his wayes knowen vnto Moses, and his workes vnto the children of Israel.
He has made his ways known to Moses, his will to the sons of Israel.
8 The Lord is full of compassion and mercie, slowe to anger and of great kindnesse.
The Lord is compassionate and merciful, patient and full of mercy.
9 He will not alway chide, neither keepe his anger for euer.
He will not be angry forever, and he will not threaten for eternity.
10 He hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes, nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities.
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, and he has not repaid us according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heauen is aboue ye earth, so great is his mercie toward them that feare him.
For according to the height of the heavens above the earth, so has he reinforced his mercy toward those who fear him.
12 As farre as the East is from the West: so farre hath he remooued our sinnes from vs.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our iniquities from us.
13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that feare him.
As a father is compassionate to his sons, so has the Lord been compassionate to those who fear him.
14 For he knoweth whereof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust.
For he knows our form. He has called to mind that we are dust.
15 The dayes of man are as grasse: as a flowre of the fielde, so florisheth he.
Man: his days are like hay. Like the flower of the field, so will he flourish.
16 For the winde goeth ouer it, and it is gone, and the place thereof shall knowe it no more.
For the spirit in him will pass away, and it will not remain, and he will know his place no longer.
17 But the louing kindnesse of the Lord endureth for euer and euer vpon them that feare him, and his righteousnes vpon childrens children,
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,
18 Vnto them that keepe his couenant, and thinke vpon his commandements to doe them.
with those who serve his covenant and have been mindful of his commandments by doing them.
19 The Lord hath prepared his throne in heauen, and his Kingdome ruleth ouer all.
The Lord has prepared his throne in heaven, and his kingdom will rule over all.
20 Prayse the Lord, ye his Angels, that excell in strength, that doe his commandement in obeying the voyce of his worde.
Bless the Lord, all you his Angels: powerful in virtue, doing his word, in order to heed the voice of his discourse.
21 Prayse the Lord, all ye his hostes, ye his seruants that doe his pleasure.
Bless the Lord, all his hosts: his ministers who do his will.
22 Prayse the Lord, all ye his workes, in all places of his dominion: my soule, prayse thou the Lord.
Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul.
