1 לְדָוִד ׀ בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָה וְכׇל־קְרָבַי אֶת־שֵׁם קׇדְשֽׁוֹ׃

Praise Adonai, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!

2 בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָה וְאַל־תִּשְׁכְּחִי כׇּל־גְּמוּלָֽיו׃

Praise Adonai, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits;

3 הַסֹּלֵחַ לְכׇל־עֲוֺנֵכִי הָרֹפֵא לְכׇל־תַּחֲלוּאָֽיְכִי׃

who forgives all your depravities (moral evils); who heals all your diseases;

4 הַגּוֹאֵל מִשַּׁחַת חַיָּיְכִי הַֽמְעַטְּרֵכִי חֶסֶד וְרַחֲמִֽים׃

who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with chesed ·loving-kindness· and tender rachamim ·merciful loves·;

5 הַמַּשְׂבִּיעַ בַּטּוֹב עֶדְיֵךְ תִּתְחַדֵּשׁ כַּנֶּשֶׁר נְעוּרָֽיְכִי׃

who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

6 עֹשֵׂה צְדָקוֹת יְהֹוָה וּמִשְׁפָּטִים לְכׇל־עֲשׁוּקִֽים׃

Adonai executes righteous acts, and mishpat ·justice· for all who are oppressed.

7 יוֹדִיעַ דְּרָכָיו לְמֹשֶׁה לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עֲלִילוֹתָֽיו׃

He made known his ways to Moses [Drawn out], his deeds to the children of Israel [God prevails].

8 רַחוּם וְחַנּוּן יְהֹוָה אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם וְרַב־חָֽסֶד׃

Adonai is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in chesed ·loving-kindness·.

9 לֹא־לָנֶצַח יָרִיב וְלֹא לְעוֹלָם יִטּֽוֹר׃

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

10 לֹא כַחֲטָאֵינוּ עָשָׂה לָנוּ וְלֹא כַעֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ גָּמַל עָלֵֽינוּ׃

He has not dealt with us according to our crimes deserving penalty, sins ·missing the goal·, nor repaid us for our depravities (moral evils).

11 כִּי כִגְבֹהַּ שָׁמַיִם עַל־הָאָרֶץ גָּבַר חַסְדּוֹ עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃

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

12 כִּרְחֹק מִזְרָח מִֽמַּעֲרָב הִֽרְחִיק מִמֶּנּוּ אֶת־פְּשָׁעֵֽינוּ׃

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our rebellious breaches of relationships from us.

13 כְּרַחֵם אָב עַל־בָּנִים רִחַם יְהֹוָה עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃

Like a father has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on his children, so Adonai has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on those who fear him.

14 כִּי־הוּא יָדַע יִצְרֵנוּ זָכוּר כִּי־עָפָר אֲנָֽחְנוּ׃

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

15 אֱנוֹשׁ כֶּחָצִיר יָמָיו כְּצִיץ הַשָּׂדֶה כֵּן יָצִֽיץ׃

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

16 כִּי רוּחַ עָֽבְרָה־בּוֹ וְאֵינֶנּוּ וְלֹֽא־יַכִּירֶנּוּ עוֹד מְקוֹמֽוֹ׃

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

17 וְחֶסֶד יְהֹוָה ׀ מֵעוֹלָם וְעַד־עוֹלָם עַל־יְרֵאָיו וְצִדְקָתוֹ לִבְנֵי בָנִֽים׃

But Adonai’s chesed ·loving-kindness· is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children;

18 לְשֹׁמְרֵי בְרִיתוֹ וּלְזֹכְרֵי פִקֻּדָיו לַעֲשׂוֹתָֽם׃

to those who keep his covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

19 יְֽהֹוָה בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֵכִין כִּסְאוֹ וּמַלְכוּתוֹ בַּכֹּל מָשָֽׁלָה׃

Adonai has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

20 בָּרְכוּ יְהֹוָה מַלְאָכָיו גִּבֹּרֵי כֹחַ עֹשֵׂי דְבָרוֹ לִשְׁמֹעַ בְּקוֹל דְּבָרֽוֹ׃

Praise Adonai, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, Sh'ma ·hearing obeying· the voice of his word.

Praise Adonai, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

22 בָּרְכוּ יְהֹוָה ׀ כׇּֽל־מַעֲשָׂיו בְּכׇל־מְקֹמוֹת מֶמְשַׁלְתּוֹ בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָֽה׃

Praise Adonai, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Adonai, my soul!
