1Praise Adonai, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name! ²⁰⁵

2Praise Adonai , my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits;

3who forgives all your depravities (moral evils); who heals all your diseases;

4who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with chesed ·loving-kindness· and tender rachamim ·merciful loves·;

5who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

6Adonai executes righteous acts, and mishpat ·justice· for all who are oppressed.

7He made known his ways to Moses [Drawn out], his deeds to the children of Israel [God prevails].

8Adonai is merciful and gracious, ²⁰⁶slow to anger, and abundant in chesed ·loving-kindness·.

9He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

10He has not dealt with us according to our crimes deserving peanlty, sins ·missing the goal·, nor repaid us for our depravities (moral evils).

11For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his chesed ·loving-kindness· toward those who fear him.

12As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our rebellious breaches of relationships from us.

13Like a father has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on his children, so Adonai has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on those who fear him.

14For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

15As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

16For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.

17But Adonai’s chesed ·loving-kindness· is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, ²⁰⁷his righteousness to children’s children;

18to those who keep his covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

19Adonai has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

20Praise Adonai, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word,
Sh'ma ·hearing obeying· the voice of his word.

21Praise Adonai, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

22Praise Adonai, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion.
Praise Adonai, my soul!
