Psalm 103

Yea, like as a father pitieth his own children *

even so is the Lord merciful unto them that fear him.

For he knoweth whereof we are made *

he remembereth that we are but dust.

The days of man are but as grass *

for he flourisheth as a flower of the field.

For as soon as the wind goeth over it, it is gone *

and the place thereof shall know it no more.

But the merciful goodness of the Lord endureth for ever and ever upon them that fear him *

and his righteousness upon children’s children;

Even upon such as keep his covenant *

and think upon his commandments to do them.

The Lord hath prepared his seat in heaven *

and his kingdom ruleth over all.

O praise the Lord, ye angels of his, ye that excel in strength *

ye that fulfil his commandment, and hearken unto the voice of his words.

O praise the Lord, all ye his hosts *

ye servants of his that do his pleasure.

O speak good of the Lord, all ye works of his, in all places of his dominion *

praise thou the Lord, O my soul.
