Chapter 103

1


 

  Of David.
Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.  

 

 

--

3


 

  He has forgiveness for all your sins; he takes away all your diseases;  

 

 

--

4


 

  He keeps back your life from destruction, crowning you with mercy and grace.  

 

 

--

5


 

  He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.  

 

 

--

6


 

  The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.  

 

 

--

7


 

  He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.  

 

 

--

8


 

  The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.  

 

 

--

9


 

  His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.  

 

 

--

10


 

  He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.  

 

 

--

11


 

  For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.  

 

 

--

12


 

  As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.  

 

 

--

13


 

  As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.  

 

 

--

14


 

  For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.  

 

 

--

15


 

  As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.  

 

 

--

16


 

  The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.  

 

 

--

17


 

  But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;  

 

 

--

18


 

  If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.  

 

 

--

19


 

  The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.  

 

 

--

20


 

  Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.  

 

 

--

21


 

  Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.  

 

 

--

22


 

  Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.  

 

 

--
