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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
