RSV Psalms 103 Chapter
103:1
A Psalm of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul;and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
103:2
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits,
103:3
who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases,
103:4
who redeems your life from the Pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
103:5
who satisfies you with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
103:6
The LORD works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed.
103:7
He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel.
103:8
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
103:9
He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger for ever.
103:10
He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor requite us according to our iniquities.
103:11
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
103:12
as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
103:13
As a father pities his children, so the LORD pities those who fear him.
103:14
For he knows our frame;he remembers that we are dust.
103:15
As for man, his days are like grass;he flourishes like a flower of the field;
103:16
for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
103:17
But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who fear him, and his righteousness to children's children,
103:18
to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments.

Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, hearkening to the voice of his word!
103:21
Bless the LORD, all his hosts, his ministers that do his will!

Bless the LORD, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
