Psalms 103

1 BY DAVID. Bless, O my soul, YHWH, And all my inward parts—His Holy Name.

2 Bless, O my soul, YHWH, And do not forget all His benefits,

3 Who is forgiving all your iniquities, Who is healing all your diseases,

4 Who is redeeming your life from destruction, Who is crowning you [with] kindness and mercies,

5 Who is satisfying your desire with good, Your youth renews itself as an eagle.

6 YHWH is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

7 He makes His ways known to Moses, His acts to the sons of Israel.

8 YHWH [is] merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

9 He does not strive forever, Nor does He watch for all time.

10 He has not done to us according to our sins, Nor according to our iniquities Has He conferred benefits on us.

11 For as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness has been mighty over those fearing Him.

12 He has put our transgressions far from us—as the distance of east from west.

13 As a father has mercy on sons, YHWH has mercy on those fearing Him.

14 For He has known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust.

15 Mortal man! His days [are] as grass, He flourishes as a flower of the field;

16 For a wind has passed over it, and it is not, And its place does not discern it anymore.

17 And the kindness of YHWH [Is] from age even to age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons’ sons,

18 To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.

19 YHWH has established His throne in the heavens, And His kingdom has ruled over all.

20 Bless YHWH, you His messengers, Mighty in power—doing His word, To listen to the voice of His word.

21 Bless YHWH, all you His hosts, His ministers—doing His pleasure.

22 Bless YHWH, all you His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, YHWH!
