Onze dagen are like grass ...

Psalm 103

Praise
the Lord, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
For he forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases;
he redeems my life from the pit and crowns me with love and compassion.
He satisfies my desires with good things,
so that my youth is renewed
like the eagle's.

The Lord
works righteousness
and justice for all the oppressed.
He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel:
"The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger,
abounding
in love.

He will not
always accuse,
nor will he harbor his anger forever;
he does not treat us as our sins deserve or
repay us according to
our iniquities.

For as high
as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our trans-gressions
from us.

As a father
has compassion
on his children, so the Lord has compassion
on those who fear him; for he knows how we are formed,
he remembers that
we are dust.

As for man,
his days are like grass,
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place
remembers it no more.

But from everlasting to everlasting
the Lord's love is with those who fear him,
and his righteousness with their children's children -
with those who keep his covenant and remember
to obey his precepts.

The Lord has established his throne in heaven,
and his kingdom rules over all.

Praise the Lord, you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his bidding, who obey his word.
Praise the Lord, all his heavenly hosts,
you his servants who do his will.

Praise the Lord, all his works
everywhere in his
dominion.

Praise the Lord, O my soul!
