Psalms 103

Praise for the Lord ’s Mercies

¹Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!

²Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:

³Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,

⁴Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,

⁵Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

⁶The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed.

⁷He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.

⁸The Lord is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

⁹He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever.

¹⁰He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

¹¹For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

¹²As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

¹³As a father pities his children, So the Lord pities those who fear Him.

¹⁴For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.

¹⁵As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

¹⁶For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, And its place remembers it no more.

¹⁷But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting On those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children’s children,

¹⁸To such as keep His covenant, And to those who remember His commandments to do them.

¹⁹The Lord has established His throne in heaven, And His kingdom rules over all.

²⁰Bless the Lord, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word.

²¹Bless the Lord, all you His hosts, You ministers of His, who do His pleasure.

²²Bless the Lord, all His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul!
