¹ [A Psalm] 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 forgiveth all thine iniquity; who healeth all Thy diseases;⁴ Who redeemeth Thy life from the pit; who encompasseth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;⁵ Who satisfieth thine old age with good things; so that Thy youth is renewed like the eagle.

⁶ The LORD executeth righteousness, and acts of justice for all that are oppressed.⁷ He made known His ways unto Moses, His doings unto the children of Israel.⁸ The LORD is full of compassion and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.⁹ He will not always contend; neither will He keep His anger for ever.¹⁰ He hath not dealt with us after our sins, nor requited us according to our iniquities.¹¹ For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him.¹² As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us.¹³ Like as a father hath compassion upon his children, so hath the LORD compassion upon them that fear Him.¹⁴ For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.¹⁵ As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.¹⁶ For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof knoweth it no more.¹⁷ But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear Him, ¹⁸ To such as keep His covenant, and to those that remember His precepts to do them.

¹⁹ The LORD hath established His throne in the heavens; and His kingdom ruleth over all.²⁰ Bless the LORD, ye angels of His, ²¹ Bless the LORD, all ye His hosts; ye ministers of His, that do His pleasure.²² Bless the LORD, all ye His works, in all places of His dominion; {P}
