1 B less Jehovah, O my soul; and all that is within me, his holy name!

2 B less Jehovah, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3 W ho forgiveth all thine iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases;

4 W ho redeemeth thy life from the pit, who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies;

5 W ho satisfieth thine old age with good; thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

6 J ehovah executeth righteousness and justice for all that are oppressed.

7 H e made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

8 J ehovah is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving-kindness.

9 H e will not always chide, neither will he keep for ever.

10 H e hath not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11 F or as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving-kindness toward them that fear him.

12 A s far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

13 A s a father pitieth children, so Jehovah pitieth them that fear him.

14 F or himself knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

15 A s for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth:

16 F or the wind passeth over it, and it is gone, and the place thereof knoweth it no more.

17 B ut the loving-kindness of Jehovah is from everlasting and to everlasting, upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children,

18 T o such as keep his covenant and to those that remember his precepts to do them.

19 J ehovah hath established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom ruleth over all.

20 B less Jehovah, ye his angels, mighty in strength, that execute his word, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

21 B less Jehovah, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his that do his will.

22 B less Jehovah, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless Jehovah, O my soul!
