לְדָוִ֨ד ׀ בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה וְכָל־קְ֝רָבַ֗י אֶת־שֵׁ֥ם קָדְשֽׁוֹ׃

Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul; all that is within me, bless His holy name.

A Psalm of David.

Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה וְאַל־תִּ֝שְׁכְּחִ֗י כָּל־גְּמוּלָֽיו׃

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all His kind deeds—

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

הַסֹּלֵ֥חַ לְכָל־עֲוֺנֵ֑כִי הָ֝רֹפֵ֗א לְכָל־תַּחֲלֻאָֽיְכִי׃

He who forgives all your iniquities and heals all your diseases,

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

הַגּוֹאֵ֣ל מִשַּׁ֣חַת חַיָּ֑יְכִי הַֽ֝מְעַטְּרֵ֗כִי חֶ֣סֶד וְרַחֲמִֽים׃

who redeems your life from the Pit and crowns you with loving devotion and compassion,

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

הַמַּשְׂבִּ֣יַע בַּטּ֣וֹב עֶדְיֵ֑ךְ תִּתְחַדֵּ֖שׁ כַּנֶּ֣שֶׁר נְעוּרָֽיְכִי׃

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

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

עֹשֵׂ֣ה צְדָק֣וֹת יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝מִשְׁפָּטִ֗ים לְכָל־עֲשׁוּקִֽים׃

The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.

The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.

יוֹדִ֣יעַ דְּרָכָ֣יו לְמֹשֶׁ֑ה לִבְנֵ֥י יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל עֲלִילֽוֹתָיו׃

He made known His ways to Moses, His deeds to the people of Israel.

He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

רַח֣וּם וְחַנּ֣וּן יְהוָ֑ה אֶ֖רֶךְ אַפַּ֣יִם וְרַב־חָֽסֶד׃

The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

לֹֽא־לָנֶ֥צַח יָרִ֑יב וְלֹ֖א לְעוֹלָ֣ם יִטּֽוֹר׃

He will not always accuse us, nor harbor His anger forever.

He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

לֹ֣א כַ֭חֲטָאֵינוּ עָ֣שָׂה לָ֑נוּ וְלֹ֥א כַ֝עֲוֺנֹתֵ֗ינוּ גָּמַ֥ל עָלֵֽינוּ׃

He has not dealt with us according to our sins or repaid us according to our iniquities.

He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

כִּ֤י כִגְבֹ֣הַּ שָׁ֭מַיִם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ גָּבַ֥ר חַ֝סְדּ֗וֹ עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃

For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His loving devotion for those who fear Him.

For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

כִּרְחֹ֣ק מִ֭זְרָח מִֽמַּֽעֲרָ֑ב הִֽרְחִ֥יק מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ אֶת־פְּשָׁעֵֽינוּ׃

As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.

As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

כְּרַחֵ֣ם אָ֭ב עַל־בָּנִ֑ים רִחַ֥ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה עַל־יְרֵאָֽיו׃

As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

כִּי־ה֖וּא יָדַ֣ע יִצְרֵ֑נוּ זָ֝כ֗וּר כִּי־עָפָ֥ר אֲנָֽחְנוּ׃

For He knows our frame; He is mindful that we are dust.

For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

אֱ֭נוֹשׁ כֶּחָצִ֣יר יָמָ֑יו כְּצִ֥יץ הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה כֵּ֣ן יָצִֽיץ׃

As for man, his days are like grass—he blooms like a flower of the field;

As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

כִּ֤י ר֣וּחַ עָֽבְרָה־בּ֣וֹ וְאֵינֶ֑נּוּ וְלֹא־יַכִּירֶ֖נּוּ ע֣וֹד מְקוֹמֽוֹ׃

when the wind passes over, it vanishes, and its place remembers it no more.

For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

וְחֶ֤סֶד יְהוָ֨ה ׀ מֵעוֹלָ֣ם וְעַד־ע֭וֹלָם עַל־יְרֵאָ֑יו וְ֝צִדְקָת֗וֹ לִבְנֵ֥י בָנִֽים׃

But from everlasting to everlasting the loving devotion of the LORD extends to those who fear Him, and His righteousness to their children’s children—

But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children;

לְשֹׁמְרֵ֥י בְרִית֑וֹ וּלְזֹכְרֵ֥י פִ֝קֻּדָ֗יו לַעֲשׂוֹתָֽם׃

to those who keep His covenant and remember to obey His precepts.

To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

יְֽהוָ֗ה בַּ֭שָּׁמַיִם הֵכִ֣ין כִּסְא֑וֹ וּ֝מַלְכוּת֗וֹ בַּכֹּ֥ל מָשָֽׁלָה׃

The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all.

The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

בָּרֲכ֥וּ יְהוָ֗ה מַלְאָ֫כָ֥יו גִּבֹּ֣רֵי כֹ֭חַ עֹשֵׂ֣י דְבָר֑וֹ לִ֝שְׁמֹ֗עַ בְּק֣וֹל דְּבָרֽוֹ׃

Bless the LORD, all His angels mighty in strength who carry out His word, who hearken to the voice of His command.

Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

בָּרֲכ֣וּ יְ֭הוָה כָּל־צְבָאָ֑יו מְ֝שָׁרְתָ֗יו עֹשֵׂ֥י רְצוֹנֽוֹ׃

Bless the LORD, all His hosts, you servants who do His will.

Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

בָּרֲכ֤וּ יְהוָ֨ה ׀ כָּֽל־מַעֲשָׂ֗יו בְּכָל־מְקֹמ֥וֹת מֶמְשַׁלְתּ֑וֹ בָּרֲכִ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃

Bless the LORD, all His works in all places of His dominion. Bless the LORD, O my soul!

Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
