Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies (103:4) Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's (103:5) The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed (103:6) He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel (103:7) The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy (103:8) He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever (103:9) He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities (103:10) For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him (103:11) As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us (103:12) Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him (103:13) For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust (103:14) As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth (103:15) For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more (103:16) But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children (103:17) To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them (103:18) The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all (103:19) Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word (103:20) Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure (103:21) Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul
(103:22)
