Tehillim (Psa) 103
103
1By David:
Bless Adonai, my soul!
Everything in me, bless his holy name!
2Bless Adonai, my soul,
and forget none of his benefits!
3He forgives all your offenses,
he heals all your diseases,
4he redeems your life from the pit,
he surrounds you with grace and compassion,
5he contents you with good as long as you live,
so that your youth is renewed like an eagle’s.
6Adonai brings vindication and justice
to all who are oppressed.
7He made his ways known to Moshe,
his mighty deeds to the people of Isra’el.
8Adonai is merciful and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in grace.
9He will not always accuse,
he will not keep his anger forever.
10He has not treated us as our sins deserve
or paid us back for our offenses,
11because his mercy toward those who fear him
is as far above earth as heaven.
12He has removed our sins from us
as far as the east is from the west.
13Just as a father has compassion on his children,
Adonai has compassion on those who fear him.
14For he understands how we are made,
he remembers that we are dust.
15Yes, a human being’s days are like grass,
he sprouts like a flower in the countryside —
16but when the wind sweeps over, it’s gone;
and its place knows it no more.
17But the mercy of Adonai on those who fear him
is from eternity past to eternity future,
and his righteousness extends
to his children’s children,
18provided they keep his covenant
and remember to follow his precepts.
19Adonai has established his throne in heaven;
his kingly power rules everything.
20Bless Adonai, you angels of his,
you mighty warriors who obey his word,
who carry out his orders!
21Bless Adonai, all his troops,
who serve him and do what he wants!
22Bless Adonai, all his works,
in every place where he rules!
Bless Adonai, my soul!

(By David.)
The Lord's Wonderful Love
1With all my heart
I praise the Lord,
and with all that I am
I praise his holy name!
2With all my heart
I praise the Lord!
I will never forget
how kind he has been.
3The Lord forgives our sins,
heals us when we are sick,
4and protects us from death.
His kindness and love
are a crown on our heads.
5Each day that we live,#103.5 Each … live: One possible meaning for the difficult Hebrew text.
he provides for our needs
and gives us the strength
of a young eagle.
6For all who are mistreated,
the Lord brings justice.
7He taught his Law to Moses
and showed all Israel
what he could do.
8 #
Jas 5.11. The Lord is merciful!
He is kind and patient,
and his love never fails.
9The Lord won't always be angry
and point out our sins;
10he doesn't punish us
as our sins deserve.
11How great is God's love for all
who worship him?
Greater than the distance
between heaven and earth!
12How far has the Lord taken
our sins from us?
Farther than the distance
from east to west!
13Just as parents are kind
to their children,
the Lord is kind
to all who worship him,
14because he knows
we are made of dust.
15We humans are like grass
or wild flowers
that quickly bloom.
16But a scorching wind blows,
and they quickly wither
to be forever forgotten.
17The Lord is always kind
to those who worship him,
and he keeps his promises
to their descendants
18who faithfully obey him.
19God has set up his kingdom
in heaven, and he rules
the whole creation.
20All of you mighty angels,
who obey God's commands,
come and praise your Lord!
21All of you thousands
who serve and obey God,
come and praise your Lord!
22All of God's creation
and all that he rules,
come and praise your Lord!
With all my heart
I praise the Lord!
