Psalms - Chapter 103 | English Standard Version

  • 1. Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
  • 2. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits,
  • 3. who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases,
  • 4. who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
  • 5. who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
  • 6. The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.
  • 7. He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel.
  • 8. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
  • 9. He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger forever.
  • 10. He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities.
  • 11. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
  • 12. as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
  • 13. As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him.
  • 14. For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.
  • 15. As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field;
  • 16. for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
  • 17. But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children's children,
  • 18. to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments.
  • 19. The LORD has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.
  • 20. Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, obeying the voice of his word!
  • 21. Bless the LORD, all his hosts, his ministers, who do his will!
  • 22. Bless the LORD, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
