2 Blesse God O my soule: and forget not all his benefites. 3 Who forgeueth all thy wickednesse: and healeth all thine infirmities. 4 Who redeemeth thy lyfe from destruction: and crowneth thee with mercie and louyng kyndnesse. 5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good thynges: causyng thy youth lyke an Egles to be renued. 6 God executeth iustice and iudgement: for all them that are oppressed with wrong. 7 He made his wayes knowen vnto Moyses: his workes vnto the children of Israel. 8 God is full of compassion and pitie: loth to be angry, and exceedyng great in mercie. 9 He vseth not to continue in chydyng: neither reserueth he his anger for euer. 10 He dealeth not with vs accordyng to our sinnes: nor rewardeth vs according to our wickednesse. 11 For accordyng to the hyghnesse of heauen aboue the earth: his mercie preuayleth to them that feare hym. 12 Loke howe farre distaunt the east is from the west: so farre a sunder setteth he our sinnes from vs. 13 Yea lyke as a father pitieth his owne children: euen so is God mercifull vnto them that feare hym. 14 For he knoweth wherof we be made: he remembreth that we are but dust. 15 The dayes of man are as the dayes of an hearbe: he florisheth as a flowre in the fielde. 16 For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is no more seene : and the place therof knoweth 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. 18 Euen vpon such as kepe his couenaunt: and thinke vpon his commaundementes to do them. 19 God hath prepared his seate in heauen: and his kyngdome ruleth ouer all. 20 Blesse God O ye his angels mightie in operation: who fulfyll his worde in hearkening vnto the voyce of his word. 21 Blesse God all ye his hoastes: you his ministers that do his pleasure. 22 Blesse God all you his workes in all places of his dominion: O my soule blesse thou God.
