Psalms 103

1 [By David.] Praise the LORD, my soul, and all that is within me, praise his holy name.

Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

2 Praise the LORD, my soul, and do not forget all his benefits;

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3 who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases;

Who forgives all of your iniquities; who heals all your diseases;

4 who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies;

Who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies;

5 who satisfies your desire with good things; your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

Who satisfies your mouth with good things; so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

6 The LORD executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.

The LORD executes righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

7 He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

9 He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.

He has not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

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

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

13 Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.

Like a father pities his children, so the LORD pities them that fear him.

14 For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.

15 As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.

For the wind passes over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

17 But the LORD's loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children's children;

But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;

18 to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

19 The LORD has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

The LORD has prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom rules over all.

20 Praise the LORD, all you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

Bless the LORD, all of you his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

21 Praise the LORD, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

Bless all of you the LORD, all you his hosts; all of you ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

22 Praise the LORD, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul.

Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
