Praise the Lord, my soul

1
For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.
2
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.
3
Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.
4
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.
5
Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.
6
The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.
7
He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.
8
The ford is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.
9
He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.
10
He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11
For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.
12
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.
13
As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:
14
For he knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust:
15
Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.
16
For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.
17
But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,
18
To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.
19
The Lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.
20
Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.
21
Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.
22
Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.

Praise the Lord, my soul

1
Praise the LORD, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!
2
Praise the LORD, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits,
3
who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,
4
who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies,
5
who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6
The LORD executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.
7
He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.
8
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.
9
He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.
10
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.
11
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.
12
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13
Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.
14
For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.
15
As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.
17
But the LORD’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,
18
to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.
19
The LORD has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.
20
Praise the LORD, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.
21
Praise the LORD, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.
22
Praise the LORD, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul!
