103:1  Let my whole being bless the Lord! Let everything inside me bless his holy name!
103:2  Let my whole being bless the Lord and never forget all his good deeds:
103:3  how God forgives all your sins, heals all your sickness,
103:4  saves your life from the pit, crowns you with faithful love and compassion,
103:5  and satisfies you with plenty of good things so that your youth is made fresh like an eagle’s.
103:6  The Lord works righteousness; does justice for all who are oppressed.
103:7  God made his ways known to Moses; made his deeds known to the Israelites.
103:8  The Lord is compassionate and merciful, very patient, and full of faithful love.
103:9  God won’t always play the judge; he won’t be angry forever.
103:10  He doesn’t deal with us according to our sin or repay us according to our wrongdoing,
103:11  because as high as heaven is above the earth, that’s how large God’s faithful love is for those who honor him.
103:12  As far as east is from west— that’s how far God has removed our sin from us.
103:13  Like a parent feels compassion for their children— that’s how the Lord feels compassion for those who honor him.
103:14  Because God knows how we’re made, God remembers we’re just dust.
103:15  The days of a human life are like grass: they bloom like a wildflower;
103:16  but when the wind blows through it, it’s gone; even the ground where it stood doesn’t remember it.
103:17  But the Lord’s faithful love is from forever ago to forever from now for those who honor him. And God’s righteousness reaches to the grandchildren
103:18  of those who keep his covenant and remember to keep his commands.
103:19  The Lord has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all.
103:20  You divine messengers, bless the Lord! You who are mighty in power and keep his word, who obey everything he says, bless him!
103:21  All you heavenly forces, bless the Lord! All you who serve him and do his will, bless him!
103:22  All God’s creatures, bless the Lord! Everywhere, throughout his kingdom, let my whole being bless the Lord!
