103:1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all
that is within me, [bless] his holy name.
103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his
benefits:
103:3 Who forgiveth all thy iniquities; who healeth all thy
diseases;
103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee
with loving-kindness and tender mercies;
103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good [things]; [so that] thy
youth is renewed like the eagle's.
103:6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that
are oppressed.
103:7 He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the children
of Israel.
103:8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and
abundant in mercy.
103:9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep [his anger]
for ever.
103:10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins; nor
rewarded us according to our iniquities.
103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is
his mercy towards them that fear him.
103:12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he
removed our transgressions from us.
103:13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD
pitieth them that fear him.
103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are]
dust.
103:15 [As for] man, his days [are] as grass: as a flower of the
field, so he flourisheth.
103:16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and its
place shall know it no more.
103:17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to
everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to
children's children;
103:18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember
his commandments to do them.
103:19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his
kingdom ruleth over all.
103:20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength,
that do his commandments, hearkening to the voice of his word.
103:21 Bless ye the LORD, all [ye] his hosts; [ye] ministers of
his, that do his pleasure.
103:22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his
dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
