| Chapter 103 |
1 |
Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name! --
|
2 |
Praise Yahweh, my soul, And don't forget all his benefits; --
|
3 |
Who forgives all your sins; Who heals all your diseases; --
|
4 |
Who redeems your life from destruction; Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies; --
|
5 |
Who satisfies your desire with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. --
|
6 |
Yahweh executes righteous acts, And justice for all who are oppressed. --
|
7 |
He made known his ways to Moses, His deeds to the children of Israel. --
|
8 |
Yahweh is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness. --
|
9 |
He will not always accuse; Neither will he stay angry forever. --
|
10 |
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us for our iniquities. --
|
11 |
For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is his lovingkindness toward those who fear him. --
|
12 |
As far as the east is from the west, So far has he removed our transgressions from us. --
|
13 |
Like a father has compassion on his children, So Yahweh has compassion on those who fear him. --
|
14 |
For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust. --
|
15 |
As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. --
|
16 |
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more. --
|
17 |
But Yahweh's lovingkindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, His righteousness to children's children; --
|
18 |
To those who keep his covenant, To those who remember to obey his precepts. --
|
19 |
Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all. --
|
20 |
Praise Yahweh, you angels of his, Who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, Obeying the voice of his word. --
|
21 |
Praise Yahweh, all you hosts of his, You servants of his, who do his pleasure. --
|
22 |
Praise Yahweh, all you works of his, In all places of his dominion. Praise Yahweh, my soul. Psalm 104 --
