103:1  A song of David. My soul, praise the Lord! Every part of me, praise his holy name!
103:2  My soul, praise the Lord and never forget how kind he is!
103:3  He forgives all our sins and heals all our sicknesses.
103:4  He saves us from the grave, and he gives us love and compassion.
103:5  He gives us plenty of good things. He makes us young again, like an eagle that grows new feathers.
103:6  The Lord does what is fair. He brings justice to all who have been hurt by others.
103:7  He taught his laws to Moses. He let Israel see the powerful things he can do.
103:8  The Lord is kind and merciful. He is patient and full of love.
103:9  He does not always criticize. He does not stay angry with us forever.
103:10  We sinned against him, but he didn’t give us the punishment we deserved.
103:11  His love for his followers is as high above us as heaven is above the earth.
103:12  And he has taken our sins as far away from us as the east is from the west.
103:13  The Lord is as kind to his followers as a father is to his children.
103:14  He knows all about us. He knows we are made from dust.
103:15  He knows our lives are short, that they are like grass. He knows we are like a little wildflower that grows so quickly,
103:16  but when the hot wind blows, it dies. Soon, you cannot even see where the flower was.
103:17  But the Lord has always loved his followers, and he will continue to love them forever and ever! He will be good to all their descendants,
103:18  to those who are faithful to his agreement and who remember to obey his commands.
103:19  The Lord set his throne up in heaven, and he rules over everything.
103:20  Angels, praise the Lord! You angels are the powerful soldiers who obey his commands. You listen to him and obey his commands.
103:21  Praise the Lord, all his armies. You are his servants, and you do what he wants.
103:22  Everything the Lord has made should praise him throughout the world that he rules! My soul, praise the Lord!
