< Psalms 103 >
1 A Psalme of David. My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and all that is within me, prayse his holy Name.
`Of Dauid. Mi soule, blesse thou the Lord; and alle thingis that ben with ynne me, blesse his hooli name.
2 My soule, prayse thou the Lord, and forget not all his benefites.
Mi soule, blesse thou the Lord; and nyle thou foryete alle the yeldyngis of him.
3 Which forgiueth all thine iniquitie, and healeth all thine infirmities.
Which doith merci to alle thi wickidnessis; which heelith alle thi sijknessis.
4 Which redeemeth thy life from the graue, and crowneth thee with mercy and compassions.
Which ayenbieth thi lijf fro deth; which corowneth thee in merci and merciful doyngis.
5 Which satisfieth thy mouth with good things: and thy youth is renued like the eagles.
Which fillith thi desijr in goodis; thi yongthe schal be renulid as the yongthe of an egle.
6 The Lord executeth righteousnes and iudgement to all that are oppressed.
The Lord doynge mercies; and doom to alle men suffringe wrong.
7 He made his wayes knowen vnto Moses, and his workes vnto the children of Israel.
He made hise weies knowun to Moises; hise willis to the sones of Israel.
8 The Lord is full of compassion and mercie, slowe to anger and of great kindnesse.
The Lord is merciful doer, and merciful in wille; longe abidinge, and myche merciful.
9 He will not alway chide, neither keepe his anger for euer.
He schal not be wrooth with outen ende; and he schal not thretne with outen ende.
10 He hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes, nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities.
He dide not to vs aftir oure synnes; nether he yeldide to vs aftir oure wickidnessis.
11 For as high as the heauen is aboue ye earth, so great is his mercie toward them that feare him.
For bi the hiynesse of heuene fro erthe; he made strong his merci on men dredynge hym.
12 As farre as the East is from the West: so farre hath he remooued our sinnes from vs.
As myche as the eest is fer fro the west; he made fer oure wickidnessis fro vs.
13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that feare him.
As a fadir hath merci on sones, the Lord hadde merci on men dredynge him;
14 For he knoweth whereof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust.
for he knewe oure makyng.
15 The dayes of man are as grasse: as a flowre of the fielde, so florisheth he.
He bithouyte that we ben dust, a man is as hey; his dai schal flowre out so as a flour of the feeld.
16 For the winde goeth ouer it, and it is gone, and the place thereof shall knowe it no more.
For the spirit schal passe in hym, and schal not abide; and schal no more knowe his place.
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 merci of the Lord is fro with out bigynnyng, and til in to with outen ende; on men dredinge hym. And his riytfulnesse is in to the sones of sones;
18 Vnto them that keepe his couenant, and thinke vpon his commandements to doe them.
to hem that kepen his testament. And ben myndeful of hise comaundementis; to do tho.
19 The Lord hath prepared his throne in heauen, and his Kingdome ruleth ouer all.
The Lord hath maad redi his seete in heuene; and his rewme schal be lord of alle.
20 Prayse the Lord, ye his Angels, that excell in strength, that doe his commandement in obeying the voyce of his worde.
Aungels of the Lord, blesse ye the Lord; ye myyti in vertu, doynge his word, to here the vois of hise wordis.
21 Prayse the Lord, all ye his hostes, ye his seruants that doe his pleasure.
Alle vertues of the Lord, blesse ye the Lord; ye mynystris of hym that doen his wille.
22 Prayse the Lord, all ye his workes, in all places of his dominion: my soule, prayse thou the Lord.
Alle werkis of the Lord, blesse ye the Lord, in ech place of his lordschipe; my soule, blesse thou the Lord.
