+Psalms.
+Chapter 103.
+Of David. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name.
+Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.
+He has forgiveness for all your sins; he takes away all your diseases;
+He keeps back your life from destruction, crowning you with mercy and grace.
+He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.
+The Lord gives decisions in righteousness for all who are in trouble.
+He gave knowledge of his way to Moses, and made his acts clear to the children of Israel.
+The Lord is kind and full of pity, not quickly made angry, but ever ready to have mercy.
+His feeling will no longer be bitter; he will not keep his wrath for ever.
+He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
+For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.
+As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.
+As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.
+For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
+As for man, his days are as grass: his beautiful growth is like the flower of the field.
+The wind goes over it and it is gone; and its place sees it no longer.
+But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;
+If they keep his agreement, and have his laws in mind to do them.
+The Lord has made ready his high seat in the heavens; his kingdom is ruling over all.
+Give praise to the Lord, you his angels, who are great in strength, doing his orders, and waiting for his voice.
+Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.
+Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
