1 {Davidic{ Bless Yahweh, O my soul, And all within me, bless His holy Name!"
2 Bless Yahweh, O my soul, And do not forget any of His well-dealings,
3 Who is pardoning all your depravity, Who is healing all your ailments,
4 Who is redeeming your life from ruin, Who is crowning you with benignity and compassion,
5 Who is satisfying your future with good, So your youth is renewed like the vulture's."
6 Yahweh is the One executing acts of righteousness And right judgments for all those being exploited.
7 He made His ways known to Moses, His activities to the sons of Israel."
8 Compassionate and gracious is Yahweh, Slow to anger and with much benignity."
9 He shall not contend permanently, And He shall not hold resentment for the eon."
10 He has neither done to us according to our sins, Nor has He requited us according to our depravities."
11 For as the heavens are lofty over the earth, So is His benignity masterful over those fearing Him."
12 As far as the east is from the west, So He removes our transgressions far from us."
13 As a father shows compassion over his sons, So Yahweh shows compassion over those fearing Him."
14 For He knows our formation, Remembering that we are soil."
15 As for mortal man, his days are like grass, Like a blossom of the field, so is he blossoming."
16 For the wind, it passes over him, and he is no more, And his place shall not recognize him any longer."
17 Yet the benignity of Yahweh is from eon unto eon over those fearing Him, And His righteousness continues for the sons of sons,
18 To those keeping His covenant And to those remembering His precepts, to obey them."
19 Yahweh has established His throne in the heavens, And His kingdom rules among all."
20 Bless Yahweh, all His messengers, Masters of valor, doing His word, So as to hearken to the voice of His word!"
21 Bless Yahweh, all His hosts, Who are ministering to Him, Doing what is acceptable to Him!"
22 Bless Yahweh, all His works, In all places of His dominion! Bless Yahweh, O my soul!"
