A Psalme of Dauid. Blesse the Lord, O my soule: and all that is within me, blesse his holy Name.
2Blesse the Lord, O my soule: & forget not all his benefits.
3Who forgiueth all thine iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.
4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with louing kindnesse and tender mercies.
5Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things: so that thy youth is renewed like the Eagles.
6The Lord executeth righteousnesse: and iudgement for all that are oppressed.
7He made knowen his wayes vnto Moses: his actes vnto the children of Israel.
8The Lord is mercifull and gracious: slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9Hee will not alwayes chide: neither will he keepe his anger for euer.
10Hee hath not dealt with vs after our sinnes: nor rewarded vs according to our iniquities.
11For as the heauen is high aboue the earth: so great is his mercy toward them that feare him.
12As farre as the East is from the West: so farre hath hee remooued our transgressions from vs.
13Like as a father pitieth his children: so the Lord pitieth them that feare him.
14For he knoweth our frame: hee remembreth that we are dust.
15As for man, his dayes are as grasse: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16For the winde passeth ouer it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17But the mercy of the Lord is from euerlasting to euerlasting vpon them that feare him: and his righteousnesse vnto childrens children:
18To such as keepe his couenant: and to those that remember his commandements to doe them.
19The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heauens: and his kingdome ruleth ouer all.
20Blesse the Lord yee his Angels, that excell in strength, that do his commandements: hearkening vnto the voice of his word.
21Blesse ye the Lord all yee his hostes: ye ministers of his that doe his pleasure.
22Blesse the Lord all his works in all places of his dominion: blesse the Lord, O my soule.
Isaiah 40
6The voyce sayd; Cry. And hee sayd; What shall I cry? All flesh is grasse, and all the goodlinesse thereof is as the flowre of the field.
7The grasse withereth, the flowre fadeth; because the spirit of the Lord bloweth vpon it: surely the people is grasse.
8The grasse withereth, the flowre fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for euer.
And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee. 2
