[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 forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
[4] Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
[5] Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
[6] The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
[7] He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto 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 keep his anger for ever.
[10] He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded 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 pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth 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 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;
[18] To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
[19] The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
[20] Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
[21] Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye 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.
