| [1]By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts -- His Holy Name. |
[1]Blesse God O my soule: and all that is within me [prayse] his holy name |
| [2]Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits, |
[2]Blesse God O my soule: and forget not all his benefites |
| [3]Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases, |
[3]Who forgeueth all thy wickednesse: and healeth all thine infirmities |
| [4]Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee -- kindness and mercies, |
[4]Who redeemeth thy lyfe from destruction: [and] crowneth thee with mercie and louyng kyndnesse |
| [5]Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth. |
[5]Who satisfieth thy mouth with good thynges: causyng thy youth lyke an Egles to be renued |
| [6]Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed. |
[6]God executeth iustice and iudgement: for all them that are oppressed with wrong |
| [7]He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts. |
[7]He made his wayes knowen vnto Moyses: his workes vnto the children of Israel |
| [8]Merciful and gracious [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy. |
[8]God is full of compassion and pitie: loth to be angry, and exceedyng great in mercie |
| [9]Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch. |
[9]He vseth not to continue in chydyng: neither reserueth he [his anger] for euer |
| [10]Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us. |
[10]He dealeth not with vs accordyng to our sinnes: nor rewardeth vs according to our wickednesse |
| [11]For, as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him. |
[11]For accordyng to the hyghnesse of heauen aboue the earth: his mercie preuayleth to them that feare hym |
| [12]As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions. |
[12][Loke] howe farre distaunt the east is from the west: so farre a sunder setteth he our sinnes from vs |
| [13]As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him. |
[13]Yea lyke as a father pitieth [his owne] children: euen so is God mercifull vnto them that feare hym |
| [14]For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust. |
[14]For he knoweth wherof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust |
| [15]Mortal man! as grass [are] his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth; |
[15]The dayes of man are as [the dayes] of an hearbe: he florisheth as a flowre in the fielde |
| [16]For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more. |
[16]For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is no more [seene]: and the place therof knoweth it no more |
| [17]And the kindness of Jehovah [Is] from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons, |
[17]But the mercifull goodnesse of God endureth for euer and euer, vpon them that feare hym: and his righteousnesse vpon childers children |
| [18]To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them. |
[18]Euen vpon such as kepe his couenaunt: and thinke vpon his commaundementes to do them |
| [19]Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled. |
[19]God hath prepared his seate in heauen: and his kyngdome ruleth ouer all |
| [20]Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power -- doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word. |
[20]Blesse God O ye his angels mightie in operation: who fulfyll his worde in hearkening vnto the voyce of his word |
| [21]Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers -- doing His pleasure. |
[21]Blesse God all ye his hoastes: you his ministers that do his pleasure |
| [22]Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! |
[22]Blesse God all you his workes in all places of his dominion: O my soule blesse thou God |
