To recount the name of Yahweh in ZionAnd His praise in Jerusalem,

Bless Yahweh, O my soul,And all that is within me, bless His holy name.

Bless Yahweh, O my soul,And forget none of His benefits;

He made known His ways to Moses,His acts to the sons of Israel.

He will not always contend with us,And He will not keep His anger forever.

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him.

As a father has compassion on his children,So Yahweh has compassion on those who fear Him.

As for man, his days are like grass;As a flower of the field, so he flowers.

But the lovingkindness of Yahweh is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him,And His righteousness to children's children,

To those who keep His covenantAnd remember His precepts to do them.

Yahweh has established His throne in the heavens,And His kingdom rules over all.

Bless Yahweh, you His angels,Mighty in strength, who perform His word,Obeying the voice of His word!

Bless Yahweh, all you His hosts,You who serve Him, doing His will.

Bless Yahweh, all you works of His,In all places of His rule;Bless Yahweh, O my soul!

He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;He sets up the clouds to be His chariot;He walks upon the wings of the wind;

He makes His angels the winds,His ministers flaming fire.

He gives water to the mountains from His upper chambers;The earth is satisfied with the fruit of His works.

And wine which makes man's heart glad,To make his face glisten more than oil,And food which sustains man's heart.

Man goes forth to his workAnd to his labor until evening.

Let the glory of Yahweh endure forever;Let Yahweh be glad in His works;
