Psalms 103
103:1
Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!
103:2
Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits;
103:3
who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases;
103:4
who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies;
103:5
who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
103:6
Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.
103:7
He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.
103:8
Yahweh is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.
103:9
He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.
103:10
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.
103:11
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.
103:12
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
103:13
Like a father has compassion on his children, so Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him.
103:14
For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.
103:15
As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
103:16
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.
103:17
But Yahweh’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children;
103:18
to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.
103:19
Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.
103:20
Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.
103:21
Praise Yahweh, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.
103:22
Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul!
