תהילים 103
| לדוד ברכי נפשי את-יהוה וכל-קרבי את-שם קדשו | 1 |
A psalm of David. Let every part of me praise the Lord; let my whole being praise his holy character.
| ברכי נפשי את-יהוה ואל-תשכחי כל-גמוליו | 2 |
Let every part of me praise the Lord; don't let me forget the wonderful things he's done for me.
| הסלח לכל-עונכי הרפא לכל-תחלואיכי | 3 |
He forgives my sins, and he heals all my diseases.
| הגואל משחת חייכי המעטרכי חסד ורחמים | 4 |
He saves me from death; he honors me with trustworthy love and mercy.
| המשביע בטוב עדיך תתחדש כנשר נעוריכי | 5 |
He fills my life with all that's good; he makes me young again, strong as an eagle.
| עשה צדקות יהוה ומשפטים לכל-עשוקים | 6 |
The Lord does what is right, and vindicates those who are exploited.
| יודיע דרכיו למשה לבני ישראל עלילותיו | 7 |
He explained his ways to Moses: he told the people of Israel what he was going to do.
| רחום וחנון יהוה ארך אפים ורב-חסד | 8 |
The Lord is kind and gracious, not quick-tempered, and full of trustworthy love.
| לא-לנצח יריב ולא לעולם יטור | 9 |
He doesn't keep on accusing us; he doesn't stay angry with us forever.
| לא כחטאינו עשה לנו ולא כעונתינו גמל עלינו | 10 |
He does not punish us for our sins as he ought to; he does not pay us back for our wrongdoing as we deserve.
| כי כגבה שמים על-הארץ-- גבר חסדו על-יראיו | 11 |
For as high as the heavens are above the earth is the extent of his trustworthy love to those who honor him.
| כרחק מזרח ממערב-- הרחיק ממנו את-פשעינו | 12 |
As far as the east is from the west is how far the Lord has taken our sins away from us.
| כרחם אב על-בנים-- רחם יהוה על-יראיו | 13 |
Like a loving father, the Lord is kind and compassionate to those who follow him.
| כי-הוא ידע יצרנו זכור כי-עפר אנחנו | 14 |
For he knows how we are made; he remembers we are only dust.
| אנוש כחציר ימיו כציץ השדה כן יציץ | 15 |
Human lifetimes are like grass: we blossom like flowers in a field,
| כי רוח עברה-בו ואיננו ולא-יכירנו עוד מקומו | 16 |
but then the wind blows and we are gone, disappearing without a trace.
| וחסד יהוה מעולם ועד-עולם-- על-יראיו וצדקתו לבני בנים | 17 |
But the Lord's trustworthy love lasts for all eternity to those who accept him; his goodness to all generations,
| לשמרי בריתו ולזכרי פקדיו לעשותם | 18 |
to those who keep his agreement and who remember to follow his commandments.
| יהוה--בשמים הכין כסאו ומלכותו בכל משלה | 19 |
The Lord has set up his throne in the heavens, and he rules over all.
| ברכו יהוה מלאכיו גברי כח עשי דברו לשמע בקול דברו | 20 |
Praise the Lord, you angels, you powerful ones who do what he says, listening to what he tells you!
| ברכו יהוה כל-צבאיו-- משרתיו עשי רצונו | 21 |
Praise the Lord, you heavenly armies who serve him and carry out his will!
| ברכו יהוה כל-מעשיו-- בכל-מקמות ממשלתו ברכי נפשי את-יהוה | 22 |
Praise the Lord, everything in his creation, everyone under his rule, and let every part of me praise the Lord!
