Bless the LORD, O my soul, And all that is within me, {bless} His holy name. |
Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget none of His benefits; |
Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases; |
Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; |
Who satisfies your years with good things, {So that} your youth is renewed like the eagle. |
The LORD performs righteous deeds And judgments for all who are oppressed. |
He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the sons of Israel. |
The LORD is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness. |
He will not always strive {with us,} Nor will He keep {His anger} forever. |
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. |
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him. |
As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. |
Just as a father has compassion on {his} children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. |
For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are {but} dust. |
As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. |
When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its place acknowledges it no longer. |
But the lovingkindness of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children's children, |
To those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts to do them. |
The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, And His sovereignty rules over all. |
Bless the LORD, you His angels, Mighty in strength, who perform His word, Obeying the voice of His word! |
Bless the LORD, all you His hosts, You who serve Him, doing His will. |
Bless the LORD, all you works of His, In all places of His dominion; Bless the LORD, O my soul! |
