Psalm 103
Benedic, anima mea
1
Praise the Lord, O my soul *
and all that is within me praise his holy Name.
2
Praise the Lord, O my soul *
and forget not all his benefits;
3
Who forgiveth all thy sin *
and healeth all thine infirmities;
4
Who saveth thy life from destruction *
and crowneth thee with mercy and loving-kindness;
5
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things *
making thee young and lusty as an eagle.
6
The Lord executeth righteousness and judgement *
for all them that are oppressed with wrong.
7
He shewed his ways unto Moses *
his works unto the children of Israel.
8
The Lord is full of compassion and mercy *
long-suffering, and of great goodness.
9
He will not alway be chiding *
neither keepeth he his anger for ever.
10
He hath not dealt with us after our sins *
nor rewarded us according to our wickednesses.
11
For look how high the heaven is in comparison of the earth *
so great is his mercy also toward them that fear him.
12
Look how wide also the east is from the west *
so far hath he set our sins from us.
13
Yea, like as a father pitieth his own children *
even so is the Lord merciful unto them that fear him.
14
For he knoweth whereof we are made *
he remembereth that we are but dust.
