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 forgives all your sin *

and heals all your infirmities;

4

Who saves your life from the pit *

and crowns you with mercy and loving-kindness;

5

Who satisfies you with good things, *

renewing your youth like an eagle’s.

6

The Lord executes righteousness and judgment *

for all those who are oppressed with wrong.

7

He showed his ways to Moses, *

his works to the children of Israel.

8

The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, *

long-suffering and of great goodness.

9

He will not always chide us, *

neither 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 great is his mercy also toward those who fear him.

12

As far as the east is from the west, *

so far has he set our sins from us.
