¹ 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 iniquities, who heals all your diseases.⁴ Who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,⁵ Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagles.

⁶ The LORD executes righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.⁷ He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the children of Israel.⁸ The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy.⁹ He will not always chide; neither will he retain his anger for ever.¹⁰ He has not dealt with us after our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.¹¹ For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that revere him.¹² As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.¹³ As a father pities his children, so the LORD pities those who worship him.¹⁴ For he knows whereof we are made; he remembers that we are dust.¹⁵ As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourishes.¹⁶ For when the wind passes over it, it is gone; and the place thereof is known no more.¹⁷ But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that reverence him, and his righteousness to childrens children,¹⁸ To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

¹⁹ The LORD has prepared his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.²⁰ Bless the LORD, O you his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening to the voice of his word.²¹ Bless you the LORD, all you his hosts; you ministers of his that do his pleasure.²² Bless the LORD, all his works, in all places of his dominion; bless the LORD, O my soul.
