English.png English text


1  Praise the Lord, O my soul : and all that is within me praise his holy Name.

2  Praise the Lord, O my soul : and forget not all his benefits;

3  Who forgiveth all thy sin : and healeth all thine infirmities;

4  Who saveth thy life from destruction : and crowneth thee with mercy and loving-kindness;

5  Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things : making thee young and lusty as an eagle.

6  The Lord executeth righteousness and judgement : for all them that are oppressed with wrong.

7  He shewed his ways unto Moses : his works unto the children of Israel.

8  The Lord is full of compassion and mercy : long-suffering, and of great goodness.

9  He will not alway be chiding : neither keepeth he his anger for ever.

10  He hath not dealt with us after our sins : nor rewarded us according to our wickednesses.

11  For look how high the heaven is in comparison of the earth : so great is his mercy also toward them that fear him.

12  Look how wide also the east is from the west : so far hath he set our sins from us.

13  Yea, like as a father pitieth his own children : even so is the Lord merciful unto them that fear him.

14  For he knoweth whereof we are made : he remembereth that we are but dust.

15  The days of man are but as grass : for he flourisheth as a flower of the field.

16  For as soon as the wind goeth over it, it is gone : and the place thereof shall know it no more.

17  But the merciful goodness of the Lord endureth for ever and ever upon them that fear him : and his righteousness upon children's children;

18  Even upon such as keep his covenant : and think upon his commandments to do them.

19  The Lord hath prepared his seat in heaven : and his kingdom ruleth over all.

20  O praise the Lord, ye angels of his, ye that excel in strength : ye that fulfil his commandment, and hearken unto the voice of his words.

21  O praise the Lord, all ye his hosts : ye servants of his that do his pleasure.

22  O speak good of the Lord, all ye works of his, in all places of his dominion : praise thou the Lord, O my soul.
