Benedic, anima mea.
1
Praise the
|
Lord, • O my
|
soul;
||
and all that is within me,
|
praise his
|
holy
|
Name.
||
2
Praise the
|
Lord, • O my
|
soul,
||
and for-
|
get not
|
all his
|
bene•fits:
||
3
Who for-
|
giveth • all thy
|
sin,
||
and
|
healeth
|
all • thine in-
|
firmi•ties;
||
4
Who saveth thy
|
life • from de-
|
struction,
||
and crowneth thee with
|
3
mercy and
|
loving-
|
kindness;
||
5
Who satisfieth thy
|
mouth with • good
|
things,
||
making thee
|
young and
|
lusty • as an
|
eagle.
||
6
The Lord executeth
|
righteous•ness and
|
judgment
||
for all
|
them that • are op-
|
pressed with
|
wrong.
||
7
He showed his
|
ways • unto
|
Moses,
||
his
|
works un•to the
|
3
children of
|
Isra•el.
||
8
The Lord is full of com-
|
3
passion and
|
mercy,
||
long-
|
3
suffering,
|
and of • great
|
goodness.
||
9
He will not
|
3
alway be
|
chiding;
||
neither
|
keepeth • he his
|
3
anger for
|
ever.
||
10
He hath not dealt with us
|
3
after our
|
sins;
||
nor rewarded us ac-
|
cording
|
to our
|
wicked•nesses.
||
11
For look how high the heaven is in com-
|
parison • of the
|
earth;
||
so great is his mercy
|
also • toward
|
them that
|
fear him.
||
12
Look how wide also the
|
east is • from the
|
west;
||
so
|
far • hath he
|
set our
|
sins • from us.
||
13
Yea, like as a father
|
pitieth his • own
|
children;
||
even so is the Lord
|
merciful • unto
|
them that
|
fear him.
||
14
For he knoweth where-
|
of • we are
|
made;
||
he re-
|
membereth • that we
|
are but
|
dust.
||
15
The days of
|
man are • but as
|
grass;
||
for he
|
flourisheth • as a
|
flower • of the
|
field.
||
16
For as soon as the wind goeth
|
over it, • it is
|
gone;
||
and the
|
place there•of shall
|
3
know it
•
no
|
more.
||
17
But the merciful goodness of the Lord endureth for ever and ever upon
|
them that
|
fear him;
||
and his
|
righteous•ness upon
|
children’s
|
children;
||
18
Even upon such as
|
keep his
|
cove•nant,
||
and
|
think upon • his com-
|
3
mandments to
|
do them.
||
19
The Lord hath prepared his
|
seat in
|
heaven,
||
and his
|
kingdom
|
ruleth • over
|
all.
||
20
O praise the Lord, ye angels of his, * ye that ex-
|
cel in
|
strength;
||
ye that fulfil his commandment, and
|
hearken • unto the
|
3
voice of
•
his
|
words.
||

O praise the Lord, ye angels of his, * ye that ex-

cel in

strength;
||
ye that fulfil his commandment, and
|
hearken • unto the
|

voice of
•
his

word.
||
21
O praise the Lord,
|
all • ye his
|
hosts;
||
ye
|
servants of • his that
|
do his
|
pleasure.
||
22
O speak good of the Lord, all ye works of his, * in all
|
places of • his do-
|
minion:
||
3
praise
|
thou the
|
Lord, • O my
|
soul.
||
Glory | be • to the | Father, ||
and to the Son, | and • to the | Holy | Ghost; ||
As it | was in • the be- | ginning, ||
is now, and ever shall be, * | world with•out | end. A- | men. ||
