1 <[A Psalm] of David.> Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name.
[gsn]
[jfb]
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
[jfb]
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
[gsn]
[jfb]
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
[gsn]
[jfb]
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good [things; so that] thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
[jfb]
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
[gsn]
[jfb]
8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
[jfb]
9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep [his anger] for ever.
[gsn]
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
[gsn]
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
[jfb]
[jwc]
12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
[gsn]
[jfb]
13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
[jfb]
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.
[jfb]
[jwc]
15 [As for] man, his days [are] as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
[gsn]
[jfb]
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17 But the mercy of the LORD [is] from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
[gsn]
[jfb]
18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
[gsn]
[jfb]
19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
[jfb]
20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
[gsn]
[jfb]
21 Bless ye the LORD, all [ye] his hosts; [ye] ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
[jfb]
[jwc]
22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
[jfb]
