103
1 Bless the LORD, my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, my soul, and forget none of his benefits.
3 He forgives all your guilt and heals all your diseases.
4 He redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with steadfast love and compassion.
5 He satisfies your life with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.
7 He made his ways known to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.
8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in steadfast love.
9 He will not accuse forever or keep his anger for all time.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins or repaid us according to our guilt.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.
14 For he knows how we are formed;
he remembers that we are dust.
15 As for mortals, their days are like grass;
they flourish like a flower of the field.
16 The wind passes over it, and it is gone;
its place knows it no more.
17 But the LORD’s steadfast love is from everlasting to everlasting toward those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children,
18 to those who keep his covenant and remember his precepts to do them.
19 The LORD has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the LORD, you his angels, mighty in strength, who do his word, obeying the voice of his word.
21 Bless the LORD, all his hosts, his servants who do his will.
22 Bless the LORD, all his works, in all the places of his dominion.
Bless the LORD, my soul!
