Psalm 103

¹By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts—His Holy Name.

²Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,

³Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,

⁴Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee—kindness and mercies,

⁵Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

⁶Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

⁷He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.

⁸Merciful and gracious is Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

⁹Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.

¹⁰Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.

¹¹For, as the height of the heavens is above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.

¹²As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.

¹³As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

¹⁴For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we are dust.

¹⁵Mortal man! as grass are his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

¹⁶For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

¹⁷And the kindness of Jehovah Is from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons’ sons,

¹⁸To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.

¹⁹Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.

²⁰Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power—doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.

²¹Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers—doing His pleasure.

²²Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
