PSALM 103
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1O thou my soul, bless God the Lord;
and all that in me is
Be stirred up his holy name
to magnify and bless.
2Bless, O my soul, the Lord thy God,
and not forgetful be
Of all his gracious benefits
he hath bestow'd on thee.
3All thine iniquities who doth
most graciously forgive:
Who thy diseases all and pains doth heal,
and thee relieve.
4Who doth redeem thy life, that thou
to death may'st not go down;
Who thee with loving-kindness doth
and tender mercies crown:
5Who with abundance of good things
doth satisfy thy mouth;
So that, ev'n as the eagle's age,
renewed is thy youth.
6God righteous judgment executes
for all oppressed ones.
7His ways to Moses, he his acts
made known to Isr'el's sons.
8The Lord our God is merciful,
and he is gracious,
Long-suffering, and slow to wrath,
in mercy plenteous.
9He will not chide continually,
nor keep his anger still.
10With us he dealt not as we sinn'd,
nor did requite our ill.
11For as the heaven in its height
the earth surmounteth far;
So great to those that do him fear
his tender mercies are:
12As far as east is distant from
the west, so far hath he
From us removed, in his love,
all our iniquity.
13Such pity as a father hath
unto his children dear;
Like pity shews the Lord to such
as worship him in fear.
14For he remembers we are dust,
and he our frame well knows.
15Frail man, his days are like the grass,
as flow'r in field he grows:
16For over it the wind doth pass,
and it away is gone;
And of the place where once it was
it shall no more be known.
17But unto them that do him fear
God's mercy never ends;
And to their children's children still
his righteousness extends:
18To such as keep his covenant,
and mindful are alway
Of his most just commandements,
that they may them obey.
19The Lord prepared hath his throne
in heavens firm to stand;
And ev'ry thing that being hath
his kingdom doth command.
20O ye his angels, that excel
in strength, bless ye the Lord;
Ye who obey what he commands,
and hearken to his word.
21O bless and magnify the Lord,
ye glorious hosts of his;
Ye ministers, that do fulfil
whate'er his pleasure is.
22O bless the Lord, all ye his works,
wherewith the world is stor'd
In his dominions ev'ry where.
My soul, bless thou the Lord.

Tehillim (Psalms) 103
103
1Bless יהוה, O my being, And all that is within me, Bless His set-apart Name!
2Bless יהוה, O my being, And do not forget all His dealings,
3Who forgives all your crookednesses, Who heals all your diseases,
4Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving-commitment and compassion,
5Who satisfies your desire with the good, Your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6יהוה is doing righteousness And right-ruling for all the oppressed.
7He made known His ways to Mosheh, His acts to the children of Yisra’ĕl.
8יהוה is compassionate and showing favour, Patient, and great in loving-commitment.
9He does not always strive, nor maintain it forever.
10He has not done to us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our crookednesses.
11For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is His loving-commitment toward those who fear Him;
12As far as east is from west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
13As a father has compassion for his children, So יהוה has compassion for those who fear Him.
14For He knows how we are made; He remembers that we are dust.
15A man’s days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16For the wind blows over it, and it is no more, And its place no longer remembers it.
17But the loving-commitment of יהוה Is from everlasting to everlasting Upon those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children’s children,
18To those who guard His covenant, And to those who remember His orders to do them.
19יהוה has established His throne in the heavens, And His reign shall rule over all.
20Bless יהוה, you His messengers, Mighty in power, who do His Word, Listening to the voice of His Word.
21Bless יהוה, all you His hosts, You His servants, who do His pleasure.
22Bless יהוה, all His works, In all places of His rule. Bless יהוה, O my being!
