¹ Praise the LORD, my soul! All my being, praise his holy name! ² Praise the LORD, my soul, and do not forget how kind he is. ³ He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. ⁴ He keeps me from the grave and blesses me with love and mercy. ⁵ He fills my life with good things, so that I stay young and strong like an eagle. ⁶ The LORD judges in favor of the oppressed and gives them their rights. ⁷ He revealed his plans to Moses and let the people of Israel see his mighty deeds. ⁸ The LORD is merciful and loving, slow to become angry and full of constant love. ⁹ He does not keep on rebuking; he is not angry forever. ¹⁰ He does not punish us as we deserve or repay us according to our sins and wrongs. ¹¹ As high as the sky is above the earth, so great is his love for those who honor him. ¹² As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our sins from us. ¹³ As a father is kind to his children, so the LORD is kind to those who honor him. ¹⁴ He knows what we are made of; he remembers that we are dust. ¹⁵ As for us, our life is like grass. We grow and flourish like a wild flower; ¹⁶ then the wind blows on it, and it is gone--- no one sees it again. ¹⁷ But for those who honor the LORD, his love lasts forever, and his goodness endures for all generations ¹⁸ of those who are true to his covenant and who faithfully obey his commands.
