Bless Yahweh, O My Soul

^1 (C1)Bless Yahweh, O my soul,
And all that is within me, bless His ^(C2)holy name.

² Bless Yahweh, O my soul,
And ^(C1)forget none of His benefits;

³ Who ^(C1)pardons all your iniquities,
Who ^(C2)heals all your diseases;

⁴ Who ^(C1)redeems your life from the pit,
Who ^(C2)crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion;

⁵ Who ^(C1)satisfies your ^(F1)years with good things,
So that your youth is ^(C2)renewed like the eagle.

⁶ Yahweh ^(C1)performs righteous deeds
And judgments for all who are ^(C2)oppressed.

⁷ He ^(C1)made known His ways to Moses,
His ^(C2)acts to the sons of Israel.

⁸ Yahweh is ^(C1)compassionate and gracious,
^(C2)Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.

⁹ He ^(C1)will not always contend with us,
And He will not ^(C2)keep His anger forever.

¹⁰ He has ^(C1)not dealt with us according to our sins,
And He has not rewarded us according to our iniquities.

¹¹ For as high ^(C1)as the heavens are above the earth,
So great is His lovingkindness toward those who ^(F1)fear Him.

¹² As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He ^(C1)removed our transgressions from us.

^13 (C1)As a father has compassion on his children,
So Yahweh has compassion on those who ^(F1)fear Him.

¹⁴ For ^(C1)He Himself knows ^(F1)our form;
He ^(C2)remembers that we are but ^(C3)dust.

¹⁵ As for man, his days are ^(C1)like grass;
As a ^(C2)flower of the field, so he flowers.

¹⁶ When the ^(C1)wind has passed over it, it is no more,
And its ^(C2)place acknowledges it no longer.

¹⁷ But the ^(C1)lovingkindness of Yahweh is from everlasting to everlasting on those who ^(F1)fear Him,
And His ^(F2)righteousness ^(C2)to children's children,

¹⁸ To ^(C1)those who keep His covenant
And remember His precepts to do them.

¹⁹ Yahweh has established His ^(C1)throne in the heavens,
And His ^(C2)kingdom rules over ^(F1)all.

²⁰ Bless Yahweh, you ^(C1)His angels,
^(C2)Mighty in strength, who ^(C3)perform His word,
^(C4)Obeying the voice of His word!

²¹ Bless Yahweh, all you ^(C1)His hosts,
You ^(C2)who serve Him, doing His will.

²² Bless Yahweh, ^(C1)all you works of His,
In all places of His rule;
Bless Yahweh, O my soul!
