PSALM
(KJV)
1 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2Â Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3Â Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4Â Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5Â Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6Â The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
7Â He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
8Â The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9Â He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
10Â He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11Â For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
12Â As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
13Â Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.
14Â For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15Â As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16Â For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17Â But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
18Â To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
19Â The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20Â Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21Â Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
22Â Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
