Psalm 103:title–22

A Psalm of David.

¹Bless ^athe Lord, O my soul;

And all that is within me, bless His holy name!

²Bless the Lord, O my soul,

And forget not all His benefits:

^3bWho forgives all your iniquities,

Who ^cheals all your diseases,

⁴Who redeems your life from destruction,

^dWho crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,

⁵Who satisfies your mouth with good things,

So that ^eyour youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

⁶The Lord executes righteousness

And justice for all who are oppressed.

^7fHe made known His ways to Moses,

His acts to the children of Israel.

^8gThe Lord is merciful and gracious,

Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

^9hHe will not always strive with us,

Nor will He keep His anger forever.

¹⁰ⁱHe has not dealt with us according to our sins,

Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

¹¹For as the heavens are high above the earth,

So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

¹²As far as the east is from the west,

So far has He ^jremoved our transgressions from us.

^13kAs a father pities his children,

So the Lord pities those who fear Him.

¹⁴For He ¹knows our frame;

He remembers that we are dust.

¹⁵As for man, ^lhis days are like grass;

As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

^16mFor the wind passes over it, and it is ²gone,

And ⁿits place remembers it no more.

¹⁷But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting

On those who fear Him,

And His righteousness to children’s children,

^18oTo such as keep His covenant,

And to those who remember His commandments to do them.

¹⁹The Lord has established His throne in heaven,

And ^pHis kingdom rules over all.

^20qBless the Lord, you His angels,

Who excel in strength, who ^rdo His word,

Heeding the voice of His word.

²¹Bless the Lord, all you His hosts,

^sYou ³ministers of His, who do His pleasure.

²²Bless the Lord, all His works,

In all places of His dominion.

Bless the Lord, O my soul!
