Psalms 103
1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name.
Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, —And all that is within me, his holy Name;
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, And forget not all his dealings: —
3 Who forgiveth all thy iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Who forgiveth all thine iniquity, Who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies;
Who redeemeth, from destruction, thy life, Who crowneth thee, with lovingkindness and compassion:
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good [things]; [so that] thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
Who satisfieth, with good, thine age, Thy youth, reneweth itself like an eagle.
6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
Yahweh is one, who executeth righteousness, Yea vindication for all the oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the children of Israel.
Who made known his ways unto Moses, unto the sons of Israel, his doings.
8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.
Compassionate and gracious, is Yahweh, —Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness.
9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep [his anger] for ever.
Not perpetually, will he contend, Nor age-abidingly, retain anger;
10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
Not according to our sins, hath he dealt with us, Nor according to our iniquities, hath he treated us.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy towards them that fear him.
For, as the heavens are exalted over the earth, His lovingkindness hath prevailed over them who revere him;
12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
As far as East from West, Hath he put far from us, our transgressions;
13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
Like the compassion of a father for his children, Is, the compassion of Yahweh, for them who revere him;
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.
For, he, knoweth how we are formed, He is mindful that, dust, we are.
15 [As for] man, his days [are] as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
As for man, like grass, are his days, Like the blossom of the field, so, doth he blossom;
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and its place shall know it no more.
For, a wind, hath passed over it, and it is gone, And its own place is acquainted with it no more.
17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to children's children;
But, the lovingkindness of Yahweh, is from one age even to another, Upon them who revere him, And his righteousness, to children’s children: —
18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
To such as keep his covenant, And remember his precepts, to do them.
19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
Yahweh, in the heavens, hath established his throne, And, his kingdom, over all, hath dominion.
20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening to the voice of his word.
Bless Yahweh, ye messengers of his, —Heroes of vigour, doing his word, To hearken [again] to the voice of his word;
21 Bless ye the LORD, all [ye] his hosts; [ye] ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
Bless Yahweh, all ye his hosts, Attendants of his, doing his pleasure;
22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
Bless Yahweh, all ye his works, In all places of his dominion, Bless, O my soul, Yahweh.
