Psalm 103:1-12

¹ Let my whole being bless the LORD! Let everything inside me bless his holy name! ² Let my whole being bless the LORD and never forget all his good deeds: ³ how God forgives all your sins, heals all your sickness, ⁴ saves your life from the pit, crowns you with faithful love and compassion, ⁵ and satisfies you with plenty of good things so that your youth is made fresh like an eagle’s. ⁶ The LORD works righteousness; does justice for all who are oppressed. ⁷ God made his ways known to Moses; made his deeds known to the Israelites. ⁸ The LORD is compassionate and merciful, very patient, and full of faithful love. ⁹ God won’t always play the judge; he won’t be angry forever. ¹⁰ He doesn’t deal with us according to our sin or repay us according to our wrongdoing, ¹¹ because as high as heaven is above the earth, that’s how large God’s faithful love is for those who honor him. ¹² As far as east is from west that’s how far God has removed our sin from us.
