Psalms 102

1For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.

Ipsi David. Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et omnia quæ intra me sunt nomini sancto ejus.

2Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.

Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et noli oblivisci omnes retributiones ejus.

3Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.

Qui propitiatur omnibus iniquitatibus tuis; qui sanat omnes infirmitates tuas:

4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.

qui redimit de interitu vitam tuam; qui coronat te in misericordia et miserationibus:

5Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.

qui replet in bonis desiderium tuum; renovabitur ut aquilæ juventus tua:

6The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.

faciens misericordias Dominus, et judicium omnibus injuriam patientibus.

7He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.

Notas fecit vias suas Moysi; filiis Israël voluntates suas.

8The Lord is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.

Miserator et misericors Dominus: longanimis, et multum misericors.

9He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.

Non in perpetuum irascetur, neque in æternum comminabitur.

10He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

Non secundum peccata nostra fecit nobis, neque secundum iniquitates nostras retribuit nobis.

11For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.

Quoniam secundum altitudinem cæli a terra, corroboravit misericordiam suam super timentes se;

12As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.

quantum distat ortus ab occidente, longe fecit a nobis iniquitates nostras.

13As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:

Quomodo miseretur pater filiorum, misertus est Dominus timentibus se.

14For he knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust:

Quoniam ipse cognovit figmentum nostrum; recordatus est quoniam pulvis sumus.

15Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.

Homo, sicut fœnum dies ejus; tamquam flos agri, sic efflorebit:

16For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.

quoniam spiritus pertransibit in illo, et non subsistet, et non cognoscet amplius locum suum.

17But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,

Misericordia autem Domini ab æterno, et usque in æternum super timentes eum. Et justitia illius in filios filiorum,

18To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.

his qui servant testamentum ejus, et memores sunt mandatorum ipsius ad faciendum ea.

19The lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.

Dominus in cælo paravit sedem suam, et regnum ipsius omnibus dominabitur.

20Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.

Benedicite Domino, omnes angeli ejus: potentes virtute, facientes verbum illius, ad audiendam vocem sermonum ejus.

21Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.

Benedicite Domino, omnes virtutes ejus; ministri ejus, qui facitis voluntatem ejus.

22Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.

Benedicite Domino, omnia opera ejus: in omni loco dominationis ejus, benedic, anima mea, Domino.
