Psalms

Psalm 103:2–5

²Bless the LORD, O my soul,

and do not forget all His kind deeds —

³He who forgives all your iniquities

and heals all your diseases,

⁴who redeems your life from the Pit

and crowns you with loving devotion and compassion,

⁵who satisfies you with good things,

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
