[1] Bless the Lord, my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name. [2] Bless the Lord, my soul, And do not forget any of His benefits; [3] Who pardons all your guilt, Who heals all your diseases; [4] Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with favor and compassion; [5] Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle. [6] The Lord performs righteous deeds And judgments for all who are oppressed. [7] He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the sons of Israel. [8] The Lord is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in mercy. [9] He will not always contend with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever. [10] He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our guilty deeds. [11] For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him. [12] As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our wrongdoings from us. [13] Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him. [14] For He Himself knows our form; He is mindful that we are nothing but dust. [15] As for man, his days are like grass; Like a flower of the field, so he flourishes. [16] When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its place no longer knows about it. [17] But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting for those who fear Him, And His justice to the children’s children, [18] To those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts, so as to do them. [19] The Lord has established His throne in the heavens, And His sovereignty rules over all. [20] Bless the Lord, you His angels, Mighty in strength, who perform His word, Obeying the voice of His word! [21] Bless the Lord, all you His angels, You who serve Him, doing His will. [22] Bless the Lord, all you works of His, In all places of His dominion; Bless the Lord, my soul!
