Psalm 103

Benedic, anima mea

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

He forgives all your sins *

and heals all your infirmities;

4

He redeems your life from the grave *

and crowns you with mercy and loving-kindness;

5

He satisfies you with good things, *

and your youth is renewed like an eagle’s.

6

The Lord executes righteousness *

and judgment for all who are oppressed.

7

He made his ways known to Moses *

and his works to the children of Israel.

8

The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, *

slow to anger and of great kindness.

9

He will not always accuse us, *

nor will he keep his anger for ever.

10

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, *

nor rewarded us according to our wickedness.

11

For as the heavens are high above the earth, *

so is his mercy great upon those who fear him.

12

As far as the east is from the west, *

so far has he removed our sins from us.

13

As a father cares for his children, *

so does the Lord care for those who fear him.

22

Bless the Lord, all you works of his,

in all places of his dominion; *

bless the Lord, O my soul.
