LXX(EN)
[A Psalm of David.]
[No book] [1]Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
[No book] [2]Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his praises:
[No book] [3]who forgives all thy transgressions, who heals all thy diseases;
[No book] [4]who redeems thy life from corruption; who crowns thee with mercy and compassion;
[No book] [5]who satisfies thy desire with good things: so that thy youth shall be renewed like that of the eagle.
[No book] [6]The Lord executes mercy and judgment for all that are injured.
[No book] [7]He made known his ways to Moses, his will to the children of Israel.
[No book] [8]The Lord is compassionate and pitiful, long-suffering, and full of mercy.
[No book] [9]He will not be always angry; neither will he be wrathful for ever.
[No book] [10]He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor recompensed us according to our iniquities.
[No book] [11]For as the heaven is high above the earth, the Lord has so increased his mercy toward them that fear him.
[No book] [12]As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
[No book] [13]As a father pities his children, the Lord pities them that fear him.
[No book] [14]For he knows our frame: remember that we are dust.
[No book] [15]As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so shall he flourish.
[No book] [16]For the wind passes over it, and it shall not be; and it shall know its place no more.
[No book] [17]But the mercy of the Lord is from generation to generation upon them that fear him, and his righteousness to children's children;
[No book] [18]to them that keep his covenant, and remember his commandments to do them.
[No book] [19]The Lord has prepared his throne in the heaven; and his kingdom rules over all.
[No book] [20]Bless the Lord, all ye his angels, mighty in strength, who perform his bidding, ready to hearken to the voice of his words.
[No book] [21]Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his that do his will.
[No book] [22]Bless the Lord, all his works, in every place of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
