| 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 -- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your 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 transgressions 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. ~ |
| SALMO 103 Bendecire al Senor con toda mi alma; bendecire con todo mi ser su santo nombre. Bendecire al Senor con toda mi alma; no olvidare ninguno de sus beneficios. El es quien perdona todas mis maldades, quien sana todas mis enfermedades, quien libra mi vida del sepulcro, quien me colma de amor y ternura, quien me satisface con todo lo mejor y me rejuvenece como un aguila. El Senor juzga con verdadera justicia a los que sufren violencia. Dio a conocer sus caminos y sus hechos a Moises y al pueblo de Israel. El Senor es tierno y compasivo; es paciente y todo amor. No nos reprende en todo tiempo ni su rencor es eterno; no nos ha dado el pago que merecen nuestras maldades y pecados; tan inmenso es su amor por los que lo honran como inmenso es el cielo sobre la tierra. Nuestros pecados ha alejado de nosotros, como ha alejado del oriente el occidente. El Senor es, con los que lo honran, tan tierno como un padre con sus hijos; pues el sabe de que estamos hechos: sabe bien que somos polvo. La vida del hombre es como la hierba; brota como una flor silvestre: tan pronto la azota el viento, deja de existir, y nadie vuelve a saber de ella. Pero el amor del Senor es eterno para aquellos que lo honran; su justicia es infinita por todas las generaciones, para los que cumplen con su alianza y no se olvidan de obedecer sus mandatos. El Senor ha puesto su trono en el cielo, y su reino domina sobre todo. Bendigan al Senor, angeles poderosos! Ustedes, que cumplen sus ordenes, que estan atentos a obedecerlo. Bendigan al Senor todos sus ejercitos, que lo sirven y hacen su voluntad! Bendiga al Senor la creacion entera, en todos los lugares de su reino! Bendecire al Senor con toda mi alma! ~ |
