Psalm 103The Forgiving God
|
|
|
|
1. My soul, bless
|
|
the Lord,
|
|
and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
|
|
|
|
2. My soul, bless
|
|
the Lord,
|
|
and do not forget all his benefits.
|
|
|
|
3. He forgives all your iniquity;
|
|
he heals all your diseases.
|
|
|
|
4. He redeems your life from the Pit;
|
|
he crowns you with faithful love and compassion.
|
|
|
|
5. He satisfies you with good things;
|
|
your youth is renewed like the eagle.
|
|
|
|
6. The Lord executes acts of righteousness
|
|
and justice for all the oppressed.
|
|
|
|
7. He revealed his ways to Moses,
|
|
his deeds to the people of Israel.
|
|
|
|
8. The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
|
|
slow to anger and abounding in faithful love.
|
|
|
|
9. He will not always accuse us
|
|
or be angry forever.
|
|
|
|
10. He has not dealt with us as our sins deserve
|
|
or repaid us according to our iniquities.
|
|
|
|
11. For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
|
|
so great is his faithful love
|
|
toward those who fear him.
|
|
|
|
12. As far as the east is from the west,
|
|
so far has he removed
|
|
our transgressions from us.
|
|
|
|
13. As a father has compassion on his children,
|
|
so
|
|
the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.
|
|
|
|
14. For he knows what we are made of,
|
|
remembering that we are dust.
|
|
|
|
15. As for man, his days are like grass--
|
|
he blooms like a flower of the field;
|
|
|
|
16. when the wind passes over it, it vanishes,
|
|
and its place is no longer known.
|
|
|
|
17. But from eternity to eternity
|
|
the Lord's faithful love is toward those who fear him,
|
|
and his righteousness toward the grandchildren
|
|
|
|
18. of those who keep his covenant,
|
|
who remember to observe his precepts.
|
|
|
|
19. The Lord has established his throne in heaven,
|
|
and his kingdom rules over all.
|
|
|
|
20. Bless
|
|
the Lord,
|
|
all his angels of great strength,
|
|
who do his word,
|
|
obedient to his command.
|
|
|
|
21. Bless
|
|
the Lord, all his armies,
|
|
his servants who do his will.
|
|
|
|
22. Bless
|
|
the Lord, all his works
|
|
in all the places where he rules.
|
|
My soul, bless
|
|
the Lord!
