Psalms 103

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 forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good {things; so that} thy youth is renewed like the eagle's. 6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. 7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. 8 The LORD {is} merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. {plentious...: Heb. great in mercy} 9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep {his anger} for ever. 10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, {so} great is his mercy toward them that fear him. {as...: Heb. according to the height of the heaven} 12 As far as the east is from the west, {so} far hath he removed our transgressions from us. 13 Like as a father pitieth {his} children, {so} the LORD pitieth them that fear him. 14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we {are} dust. 15 {As for} man, his days {are} as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. 16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. {it is...: Heb. it is not} 17 But the mercy of the LORD {is} from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children; 18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. 19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all. 20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. {that excel...: Heb. mighty in strength} 21 Bless ye the LORD, all {ye} his hosts; {ye} ministers of his, that do his pleasure. 22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
