| 1 | Blesse God O my soule: and all that is within me prayse his holy name. | Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! | Of David. Praise the LORD, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. | |
| 2 | Blesse God O my soule: and forget not all his benefites. | Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, | Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits— | |
| 3 | Who forgeueth all thy wickednesse: and healeth all thine infirmities. | who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, | who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, | |
| 4 | Who redeemeth thy lyfe from destruction: and crowneth thee with mercie and louyng kyndnesse. | who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, | who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, | |
| 5 | Who satisfieth thy mouth with good thynges: causyng thy youth lyke an Egles to be renued. | who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. | who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. | |
| 6 | God executeth iustice and iudgement: for all them that are oppressed with wrong. | The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. | The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed. | |
| 7 | He made his wayes knowen vnto Moyses: his workes vnto the children of Israel. | He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel. | He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel: | |
| 8 | God is full of compassion and pitie: loth to be angry, and exceedyng great in mercie. | The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. | The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. | |
| 9 | He vseth not to continue in chydyng: neither reserueth he his anger for euer. | He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger forever. | He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; | |
| 10 | He dealeth not with vs accordyng to our sinnes: nor rewardeth vs according to our wickednesse. | He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. | he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. | |
| 11 | For accordyng to the hyghnesse of heauen aboue the earth: his mercie preuayleth to them that feare hym. | For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; | For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; | |
| 12 | Loke howe farre distaunt the east is from the west: so farre a sunder setteth he our sinnes from vs. | as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. | as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. | |
| 13 | Yea lyke as a father pitieth his owne children: euen so is God mercifull vnto them that feare hym. | As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him. | As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him; | |
| 14 | For he knoweth wherof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust. | For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust. | for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust. | |
| 15 | The dayes of man are as the dayes of an hearbe: he florisheth as a flowre in the fielde. | As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field; | The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field; | |
| 16 | For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is no more seene : and the place therof knoweth it no more. | for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more. | the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more. | |
| 17 | But the mercifull goodnesse of God endureth for euer and euer, vpon them that feare hym: and his righteousnesse vpon childers children. | But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children, | But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— | |
| 18 | Euen vpon such as kepe his couenaunt: and thinke vpon his commaundementes to do them. | to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments. | with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts. | |
| 19 | God hath prepared his seate in heauen: and his kyngdome ruleth ouer all. | The LORD has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all. | The LORD has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all. | |
| 20 | Blesse God O ye his angels mightie in operation: who fulfyll his worde in hearkening vnto the voyce of his word. | Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, obeying the voice of his word! | Praise the LORD, you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding, who obey his word. | |
| 21 | Blesse God all ye his hoastes: you his ministers that do his pleasure. | Bless the LORD, all his hosts, his ministers, who do his will! | Praise the LORD, all his heavenly hosts, you his servants who do his will. | |
| 22 | Blesse God all you his workes in all places of his dominion: O my soule blesse thou God. | Bless the LORD, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul! | Praise the LORD, all his works everywhere in his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul. | |
