2 Bless, O my soul, YHWH, || And do not forget all His benefits, 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 is forgiving all your iniquities, || Who is healing all your diseases, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases,
4 Who is redeeming your life from destruction, || Who is crowning you [with] kindness and mercies, 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 is satisfying your desire with good, || Your youth renews itself as an eagle. 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 YHWH is doing righteousness and judgments || For all the oppressed. The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.
7 He makes His ways known to Moses, || His acts to the sons 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:

9 He does not strive forever, || Nor does He watch for all time. 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 has not done to us according to our sins, || Nor according to our iniquities || Has He conferred benefits on us. 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 as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, || His kindness has been mighty over those fearing Him. 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 He has put our transgressions far from us—as the distance of east from west. 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 As a father has mercy on sons, || YHWH has mercy on those fearing Him. 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 has known our frame, || Remembering that we [are] 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 Mortal man! His days [are] as grass, || He flourishes as a flower of the field; 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 a wind has passed over it, and it is not, || And its place does not discern it anymore. 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 And the kindness of YHWH || [Is] from age even to age on those fearing Him, || And His righteousness to sons’ sons, 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 To those keeping His covenant, || And to those remembering His precepts 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.
