Psalm 103

By David.

Praise YHWH, my soul! All that is within me, praise ʜɪꜱ holy name! Praise YHWH, my soul, and don’t forget all ʜɪꜱ benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. YHWH executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel. YHWH is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness. Hᴇ will not always accuse; neither will ʜᴇ stay angry forever. Hᴇ has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is ʜɪꜱ lovingkindness toward those who fear ʜɪᴍ. As far as the east is from the west, so far has ʜᴇ removed our transgressions from us. Like a father has compassion on ʜɪꜱ children, so YHWH has compassion on those who fear ʜɪᴍ. For ʜᴇ knows how we are made. Hᴇ remembers that we are dust. As for humanity, their days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so they flourish. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more. But YHWH’s lovingkindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear ʜɪᴍ, ʜɪꜱ righteousness to children’s children, to those who keep ʜɪꜱ covenant, to those who remember to obey ʜɪꜱ precepts. YHWH has established ʜɪꜱ throne in the heavens. Hɪꜱ kingdom rules over all. Y’all praise YHWH, ʜɪꜱ angels, who are mighty in strength, who do ʜɪꜱ word, obeying the sound of ʜɪꜱ word. Y’all praise YHWH, all ʜɪꜱ armies, ʜɪꜱ servants who do ʜɪꜱ desire. Y’all praise YHWH, all ʜɪꜱ works, in all places of ʜɪꜱ dominion. Praise YHWH, my soul!
