Psalm 103

Tree of Life Version

⁶ Adonai executes justice—
judgments for all who are oppressed.
⁷ He made His ways known to Moses,
His deeds to the children of Israel.
⁸ Adonai is compassionate and gracious,
slow to anger, and plentiful in mercy.
⁹ He will not always accuse,
nor will He keep His anger forever.
¹⁰ He has not treated us according to our sins,
or repaid us according to our iniquities.
¹¹ For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is His mercy for those who fear Him.
¹² As far as the east is from the west,
so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
¹³ As a father has compassion on his children,
so Adonai has compassion on those who fear Him.
¹⁴ For He knows our frame.
He remembers that we are but dust.
¹⁵ As for man, his days are like grass—
he flourishes like a flower of the field,
¹⁶ but when the wind blows over it, it is gone,
    and its place is no longer known.
¹⁷ But the mercy of Adonai is from everlasting to everlasting
    on those who revere Him,
His righteousness to children’s children,
¹⁸ to those who keep His covenant,
who remember to observe His instructions.

¹⁹ Adonai has set up His throne in the heavens,
and His kingdom rules over all.
²⁰ Bless Adonai, you angels of His:
mighty in strength, performing His word,
upon hearing the utterance of His word.
²¹ Bless Adonai, all you His armies,
His servants who do His will.
²² Bless Adonai, all His works everywhere in His dominion.
Bless Adonai, O my soul!
