Psalm 103:title–14

A psalm of David.

¹Let all that I am praise the Lord;

with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name.

²Let all that I am praise the Lord;

may I never forget the good things he does for me.

³He forgives all my sins

and heals all my diseases.

⁴He redeems me from death

and crowns me with love and tender mercies.

⁵He fills my life with good things.

My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!

⁶The Lord gives righteousness

and justice to all who are treated unfairly.

⁷He revealed his character to Moses

and his deeds to the people of Israel.

⁸The Lord is compassionate and merciful,

slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.

⁹He will not constantly accuse us,

nor remain angry forever.

¹⁰He does not punish us for all our sins;

he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve.

¹¹For his unfailing love toward those who fear him

is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.

¹²He has removed our sins as far from us

as the east is from the west.

¹³The Lord is like a father to his children,

tender and compassionate to those who fear him.

¹⁴For he knows how weak we are;

he remembers we are only dust.
