6Yahweh works vindication
and justice for all who are oppressed.
7He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
8Yahweh is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger for ever.
10He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor requite us according to our iniquities.
11For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
12as far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
13As a father pities his children,
so Yahweh pities those who fear him.
14For he knows our frame;
he remembers that we are dust.
15As for man, his days are like grass;
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
16for the wind passes over it,
and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
17But the steadfast love of Yahweh
is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who fear him,
and his righteousness to children's children,
18to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
19Yahweh has established his throne in the heavens,
and his kingdom rules over all.
20Bless Yahweh, O you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his word,
hearkening to the voice of his word!
21Bless Yahweh, all his hosts,
his ministers that do his will!
22Bless Yahweh, all his works,
in all places of his dominion.
Bless Yahweh, O my soul!
