^aBless Yahweh, O my soul,And all that is within me, bless His ^bholy name.²Bless Yahweh, O my soul,And ^aforget none of His benefits;³Who ^apardons all your iniquities,Who ^bheals all your diseases;⁴Who ^aredeems your life from the pit,Who ^bcrowns you with lovingkindness and compassion;⁵Who ^asatisfies your ¹years with good things,So that your youth is ^brenewed like the eagle.⁶Yahweh ^aperforms righteous deedsAnd judgments for all who are ^boppressed.⁷He ^amade known His ways to Moses,His ^bacts to the sons of Israel.⁸Yahweh is ^acompassionate and gracious,^bSlow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.⁹He ^awill not always contend with us,And He will not ^bkeep His anger forever.¹⁰He has ^anot dealt with us according to our sins,And He has not rewarded us according to our iniquities.¹¹For as high ^aas the heavens are above the earth,So great is His lovingkindness toward those who ¹fear Him.¹²As far as the east is from the west,So far has He ^aremoved our transgressions from us.¹³^aAs a father has compassion on his children,So Yahweh has compassion on those who ¹fear Him.¹⁴For ^aHe Himself knows ¹our form;He ^bremembers that we are but ^cdust.¹⁵As for man, his days are ^alike grass;As a ^bflower of the field, so he flowers.¹⁶When the ^awind has passed over it, it is no more,And its ^bplace acknowledges it no longer.¹⁷But the ^alovingkindness of Yahweh is from everlasting to everlasting on those who ¹fear Him,And His ²righteousness ^bto children’s children,¹⁸To ^athose who keep His covenantAnd remember His precepts to do them.¹⁹Yahweh has established His ^athrone in the heavens,And His ^bkingdom rules over ¹all.²⁰Bless Yahweh, you ^aHis angels,^bMighty in strength, who ^cperform His word,^dObeying the voice of His word!²¹Bless Yahweh, all you ^aHis hosts,You ^bwho serve Him, doing His will.²²Bless Yahweh, ^aall you works of His,In all places of His rule;Bless Yahweh, O my soul!
