Psalm 103

Of David.

1 Praise theLord, my soul;

all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

2 Praise theLord, my soul,

and forget not all his benefits—

3 who forgives all your sins

and heals all your diseases,

4 who redeems your life from the pit

and crowns you with love and compassion,

5 who satisfies your desires with good things

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

6 TheLordworks righteousness

and justice for all the oppressed.

7 He made known his ways to Moses,

his deeds to the people of Israel:

8 TheLordis compassionate and gracious,

slow to anger, abounding in love.

9 He will not always accuse,

nor will he harbor his anger forever;

10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve

or repay us according to our iniquities.

11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,

so great is his love for 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 theLordhas compassion on those who fear him;

14 for he knows how we are formed,

he remembers that we are dust.

15 The life of mortals is like grass,

they flourish like a flower of the field;

16 the wind blows over it and it is gone,

and its place remembers it no more.

17 But from everlasting to everlasting

theLord’s love is with those who fear him,

and his righteousness with their children’s children—

18 with those who keep his covenant

and remember to obey his precepts.

19 TheLordhas established his throne in heaven,

and his kingdom rules over all.

20 Praise theLord, you his angels,

you mighty ones who do his bidding,

who obey his word.

21 Praise theLord, all his heavenly hosts,

you his servants who do his will.

22 Praise theLord, all his works

everywhere in his dominion.

Praise theLord, my soul.
