1 Ref By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts -- His Holy Name.

2 Ref Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,

3 Ref Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,

5 Ref Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

6 Ref Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

7 Ref He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.

8 Ref Merciful and gracious `is' Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

9 Ref Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.

10 Ref Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.

13 Ref As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

14 Ref For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we `are' dust.

15 Ref Mortal man! as grass `are' his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

16 Ref For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

17 Ref And the kindness of Jehovah `Is' from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

18 Ref To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.

19 Ref Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.

20 Ref Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power -- doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.
