Psalms 103 {modified}
1 A Psalm of David. Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:
3 Who forgives all my iniquities, Who heals all my diseases, 4 Who redeems my life from destruction, Who crowns me with lovingkindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies my mouth with good things, So that my youth is renewed like the eagle's. 6 The Lord executes righteousness And justice for me when I am oppressed.
7 He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. 9 He will not always strive with me, Nor will He keep His anger towards me forever. 10 He has not dealt with me according to my sins, Nor punished me according to my iniquities. 11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is His mercy towards me who fears Him; 12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed my transgressions from me. 13 As my father pities me, his child, So the Lord pities me, who fears Him.
14 For He knows my frame; He remembers that I am dust. 15 As for me, my days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so I flourish. 16 For the wind passes over me, and it is gone, And my place remembers me no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting On me who fears Him, And His righteousness to my children's children, 18 To me who keeps His covenant, And to me who remembers His commandments to do them.
19 The Lord has established His throne in heaven, And His kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word. 21 Bless the Lord, all you His hosts, You ministers of His, who do His pleasure. 22 Bless the Lord, all His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul!
