[A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name.
—
Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits;
—
Who forgiveth all thine iniquity; Who healeth all Thy diseases;
—
Who redeemeth Thy life from the pit; Who encompasseth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
—
Who satisfieth thine old age with good things; So that Thy youth is renewed like the eagle.
—
The LORD executeth righteousness, And acts of justice for all that are oppressed.
—
He made known His ways unto Moses, His doings unto the children of Israel.
—
The LORD is full of compassion and gracious, Slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
—
He will not always contend; Neither will He keep His anger for ever.
—
He hath not dealt with us after our sins, Nor requited us according to our iniquities.
—
For as the heaven is high above the earth, So great is His mercy toward them that fear Him.
—
As far as the east is from the west, So far hath He removed our transgressions from us.
—
Like as a father hath compassion upon his children, So hath the LORD compassion upon them that fear Him. .
—
For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.
—
As for man, his days are as grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
—
For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the place thereof knoweth it no more.
—
But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear Him, And His righteousness unto children's children;
—
To such as keep His covenant, And to those that remember His precepts to do them.
—
The LORD hath established His throne in the heavens; And His kingdom ruleth over all.
—
Bless the LORD, ye angels of His, Ye mighty in strength, that fulfil His word, Hearkening unto the voice of His word.
—
Bless the LORD, all ye His hosts; Ye ministers of His, that do His pleasure.
—
Bless the LORD, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion; Bless the LORD, O my soul.
