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