Tehillim

103

לְדָוִד בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת יְהוָה וְכָל קְרָבַי אֶת שֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ:

Of David. My soul, bless the Lord, and all my innards, His holy name.

בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת יְהוָה וְאַל תִּשְׁכְּחִי כָּל גְּמוּלָיו:

My soul, bless the Lord and do not forget any of His benefits.

הַסֹּלֵחַ לְכָל עֲוֹנֵכִי הָרֹפֵא לְכָל תַּחֲלֻאָיְכִי:

Who forgives all your iniquity, Who heals all your illnesses.

הַגּוֹאֵל מִשַּׁחַת חַיָּיְכִי הַמְעַטְּרֵכִי חֶסֶד וְרַחֲמִים:

Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with kindness and mercy.

הַמַּשְׂבִּיַע בַּטּוֹב עֶדְיֵךְ תִּתְחַדֵּשׁ כַּנֶּשֶׁר נְעוּרָיְכִי:

Who sates your mouth with goodness, that your youth renews itself like the eagle.

עֹשֵׂה צְדָקוֹת יְהוָה וּמִשְׁפָּטִים לְכָל עֲשׁוּקִים:

The Lord performs charitable deeds and judgment for all oppressed people.

יוֹדִיעַ דְּרָכָיו לְמֹשֶׁה לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עֲלִילוֹתָיו:

He makes His ways known to Moses, to the children of Israel His deeds.

רַחוּם וְחַנּוּן יְהוָה אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם וְרַב חָסֶד:

The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and with much kindness.

לֹא לָנֶצַח יָרִיב וְלֹא לְעוֹלָם יִטּוֹר:

He will not quarrel to eternity, and He will not bear a grudge forever.

לֹא כַחֲטָאֵינוּ עָשָׂה לָנוּ וְלֹא כַעֲוֹנֹתֵינוּ גָּמַל עָלֵינוּ:

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor has He repaid us according to our iniquities.

כִּי כִגְבֹהַּ שָׁמַיִם עַל הָאָרֶץ גָּבַר חַסְדּוֹ עַל יְרֵאָיו:

For, as the height of the heavens over the earth, so great is His kindness toward those who fear Him.

כִּרְחֹק מִזְרָח מִמַּעֲרָב הִרְחִיק מִמֶּנּוּ אֶת פְּשָׁעֵינוּ:

As the distance of east from west, He distanced our transgressions from us.

כְּרַחֵם אָב עַל בָּנִים רִחַם יְהוָה עַל יְרֵאָיו:

As a father has mercy on sons, the Lord had mercy on those who fear Him.

כִּי הוּא יָדַע יִצְרֵנוּ זָכוּר כִּי עָפָר אֲנָחְנוּ:

For He knows our creation; He remembers that we are dust.

אֱנוֹשׁ כֶּחָצִיר יָמָיו כְּצִיץ הַשָּׂדֶה כֵּן יָצִיץ:

As for man-his days are like grass; like a flower of the field, so does he sprout.

כִּי רוּחַ עָבְרָה בּוֹ וְאֵינֶנּוּ וְלֹא יַכִּירֶנּוּ עוֹד מְקוֹמוֹ:

For a wind passes over him and he is no longer here; and his place no longer recognizes him.

וְחֶסֶד יְהוָה מֵעוֹלָם וְעַד עוֹלָם עַל יְרֵאָיו וְצִדְקָתוֹ לִבְנֵי בָנִים:

But the Lord's kindness is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who fear Him, and His charity to sons of sons.

לְשֹׁמְרֵי בְרִיתוֹ וּלְזֹכְרֵי פִקֻּדָיו לַעֲשׂוֹתָם:

To those who keep His covenant and to those who remember His commandments to perform them.

יְהוָה בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֵכִין כִּסְאוֹ וּמַלְכוּתוֹ בַּכֹּל מָשָׁלָה:

The Lord established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom rules over all.

בָּרְכוּ יְהוָה מַלְאָכָיו גִּבֹּרֵי כֹחַ עֹשֵׂי דְבָרוֹ לִשְׁמֹעַ בְּקוֹל דְּבָרוֹ:

Bless the Lord, His angels, those mighty in strength, who perform His word, to hearken to the voice of His word.

בָּרְכוּ יְהוָה כָּל צְבָאָיו מְשָׁרְתָיו עֹשֵׂי רְצוֹנוֹ:

Bless the Lord, all His hosts, His ministers, those who do His will.

בָּרְכוּ יְהוָה כָּל מַעֲשָׂיו בְּכָל מְקֹמוֹת מֶמְשַׁלְתּוֹ בָּרְכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת יְהוָה:

Bless the Lord, all His works, in all the places of His dominion; my soul, bless the Lord.
