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 iniquities;
who healeth
all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth
thy life
from destruction;
who crowneth
thee with lovingkindness
and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth
thy mouth
with good
things; so that thy youth
is renewed
like the eagle's.
The LORD
executeth
righteousness
and judgment
for all that are oppressed.
He made known
his ways
unto Moses,
his acts
unto the children
of Israel.
The LORD
is merciful
and gracious,
slow
to anger,
and plenteous
in mercy.
He will not always
chide:
neither will he keep
his anger for ever.
He hath not dealt
with us after our sins;
nor rewarded
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
pitieth
his children,
so the LORD
pitieth
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 shall know
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 commandments
to do
them.
The LORD
hath prepared
his throne
in the heavens;
and his kingdom
ruleth
over all.
Bless
the LORD,
ye his angels,
that excel
in strength,
that do
his commandments,
hearkening
unto the voice
of his word.
Bless
ye the LORD,
all ye his hosts;
ye ministers
of his, that do
his pleasure.
Bless
the LORD,
all his works
in all places
of his dominion:
bless
the LORD,
O my soul.
