¹ [A Psalme of Dauid.] Blesse the Lord, O my soule: and all that is within me, blesse his holy Name. ² Blesse the Lord, O my soule: & forget not all his benefits. ³ Who forgiueth all thine iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases. ⁴ Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with louing kindnesse and tender mercies. ⁵ Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things: so that thy youth is renewed like the Eagles.

⁶ The Lord executeth righteousnesse: and iudgement for all that are oppressed. ⁷ He made knowen his wayes vnto Moses: his actes vnto the children of Israel. ⁸ The Lord is mercifull and gracious: slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. ⁹ Hee will not alwayes chide: neither will he keepe his anger for euer. ¹⁰ Hee hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes: nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities. ¹¹ For as the heauen is high aboue the earth: so great is his mercy toward them that feare him. ¹² As farre as the East is from the West: so farre hath hee remooued our transgressions from vs. ¹³ Like as a father pitieth his children: so the Lord pitieth them that feare him. ¹⁴ For he knoweth our frame: hee remembreth that we are dust. ¹⁵ As for man, his dayes are as grasse: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. ¹⁶ For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. ¹⁷ But the mercy of the Lord is from euerlasting to euerlasting vpon them that feare him: and his righteousnesse vnto childrens children: ¹⁸ To such as keepe his couenant: and to those that remember his commandements to doe them.

¹⁹ The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heauens: and his kingdome ruleth ouer all. ²⁰ Blesse the Lord yee his Angels, that excell in strength, that do his commandements: hearkening vnto the voice of his word. ²¹ Blesse ye the Lord all yee his hostes: ye ministers of his that doe his pleasure. ²² Blesse the Lord all his works in all places of his dominion: blesse the Lord, O my soule.
