Psalms 103

1 Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, —And all that is within me, his holy Name;

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

2 Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, And forget not all his dealings: —

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

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquity, Who healeth all thy diseases;

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

4 Who redeemeth, from destruction, thy life, Who crowneth thee, with lovingkindness and compassion:

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

5 Who satisfieth, with good, thine age, Thy youth, reneweth itself like an eagle.

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

6 Yahweh is one, who executeth righteousness, Yea vindication for all the oppressed.

YHWH is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

7 Who made known his ways unto Moses, unto the sons of Israel, his doings.

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

8 Compassionate and gracious, is Yahweh, —Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness.

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

9 Not perpetually, will he contend, Nor age-abidingly, retain anger;

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

10 Not according to our sins, hath he dealt with us, Nor according to our iniquities, hath he treated us.

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 heavens are exalted over the earth, His lovingkindness hath prevailed over them who revere him;

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

12 As far as East from West, Hath he put far from us, our transgressions;

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

13 Like the compassion of a father for his children, Is, the compassion of Yahweh, for them who revere him;

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

14 For, he, knoweth how we are formed, He is mindful that, dust, we are.

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

15 As for man, like grass, are his days, Like the blossom of the field, so, doth he blossom;

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

16 For, a wind, hath passed over it, and it is gone, And its own place is acquainted with it no more.

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

17 But, the lovingkindness of Yahweh, is from one age even to another, Upon them who revere him, And his righteousness, to children’s children: —

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

18 To such as keep his covenant, And remember his precepts, to do them.

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

19 Yahweh, in the heavens, hath established his throne, And, his kingdom, over all, hath dominion.

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

20 Bless Yahweh, ye messengers of his, —Heroes of vigour, doing his word, To hearken [again] to the voice of his word;

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

21 Bless Yahweh, all ye his hosts, Attendants of his, doing his pleasure;

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

22 Bless Yahweh, all ye his works, In all places of his dominion, Bless, O my soul, Yahweh.

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