Psalm CII/CIII

Psalterion a archet



A psalm of astonishing beauty.


1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies;
5 who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
18 to such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21 Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.


(King James Bible)


1. Bless HASHEM, O my soul; and all that is within me His Holy Name.
2. Bless HASHEM, O my soul, and forget not all His kindnesses.
3. Who forgives all your sins, Who hills all your diseases.
4. Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with kindness and mercy.
5. Who satisfies your mouth with goodness, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle.
6. HASHEM is the doer of righteous deeds, and judgments for all the oppressed.
7. He made known His ways to Moses, His actions to the children of Israel:
8. Merciful and Compassionate is HASHEM, Slow to Anger and Abundantly Kind.
9. He will not quarrel for eternity, nor will He forever hear a grudge.
10. He has not treated us according to our sins, nor repaid us according to our iniquities.
11. For as high as heaven is above the earth, has His kindness overwhelmed those who fear Him.
12. As far as east from west, has He distanced our transgressions from us.
13. As a father is merciful towards his children, so has HASHEM shown mercy to those who fear Him.
14. For He knew our nature. He is mindful that we are dust.
15. Frail man – his days are like grass; like a sprout of the field, so he sprouts.
16. When a wind passes over it, it is gone, and its place recognizes it no more.
17. But the kindness of HASHEM is forever upon those who fear Him, and His righteousness is upon children’s children.
18. To those who keep His covenant, and to those who remember His commands to fulfill them.
19. HASHEM has established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom reigns over all.
20. Bless HASHEM, O His angels; the strong warriors who do His bidding, to obey the voice of His word.
21. Bless HASHEM, all His legions, His servants who do His will.
22. Bles HASHEM, all His works, in all the places of His dominion. Bless HASHEM, O my soul.

(Artscroll Tehillim)


1. Binecuvinteaza, suflete al meu, pe Domnul si toate cele dinlauntrul meu, numele cel sfant al Lui.
2. Binecuvinteaza, suflete al meu, pe Domnul si nu uita toate rasplatirile Lui.
3. Pe Cel ce curateste toate faradelegile tale, pe Cel ce vindeca toate bolile tale;
4. Pe Cel ce izbaveste din stricaciune viata ta, pe Cel ce te incununeaza cu mila si cu indurari;
5. Pe Cel ce umple de bunatati pofta ta; innoi-se-vor ca ale vulturului tineretile tale.
6. Cel ce face milostenie, Domnul, si judecata tuturor celor ce li se face strambatate.
7. Cunoscute a facut caile Sale lui Moise, fiilor lui Israel voile Sale.
8. Indurat si milostiv este Domnul, indelung-rabdator si mult-milostiv.
9. Nu pana in sfarsit se va iuti, nici in veac se va mania.
10. Nu dupa pacatele noastre a facut noua, nici dupa faradelegile noastre a rasplatit noua,
11. Ci cat este departe cerul de pamant, atat este de mare mila Lui, spre cei ce se tem de El.
12. Pe cat sunt de departe rasariturile de la apusuri, departat-a de la noi faradelegile noastre.
13. In ce chip miluieste tatal pe fii, asa a miluit Domnul pe cei ce se tem de El;
14. Ca El a cunoscut zidirea noastra, adusu-si-a aminte ca tarana suntem. 15. Omul ca iarba, zilele lui ca floarea campului; asa va inflori.
16. Ca vant a trecut peste el si nu va mai fi si nu se va mai cunoaste inca locul sau.
17. Iar mila Domnului din veac in veac spre cei ce se tem de Dansul,
18. Si dreptatea Lui spre fiii fiilor, spre cei ce pazesc legamantul Lui
19. Si isi aduc aminte de poruncile Lui, ca sa le faca pe ele. Domnul in cer a gatit scaunul Sau si imparatia Lui peste toti stapaneste.
20. Binecuvantati pe Domnul toti ingerii Lui, cei tari la vartute, care faceti cuvantul Lui si auziti glasul cuvintelor Lui.
21. Binecuvantati pe Domnul toate puterile Lui, slugile Lui, care faceti voia Lui.
22. Binecuvantati pe Domnul toate lucrurile Lui; in tot locul stapanirii Lui, binecuvinteaza suflete al meu pe Domnul.

(Cartea Psalmilor)
