New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Psalm 103
Thanksgiving for God’s Goodness
Of David.
1 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name.
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and do not forget all his benefits—
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the Pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who satisfies you with good as long as you live[a]
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The Lord works vindication
and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always accuse,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west,
so far he removes our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion for his children,
so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him.
14 For he knows how we were made;
he remembers that we are dust.
15 As for mortals, their days are like grass;
they flourish like a flower of the field;
16 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
and its place knows it no more.
17 But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
on those who fear him,
and his righteousness to children’s children,
18 to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
19 The Lord has established his throne in the heavens,
and his kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, O you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his bidding,
obedient to his spoken word.
21 Bless the Lord, all his hosts,
his ministers that do his will.
22 Bless the Lord, all his works,
in all places of his dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul.

Salmos 103
Reina Valera Contemporánea
Alabanza por las bendiciones de Dios
Salmo de David.
103 ¡Bendice, alma mía, al Señor!
¡Bendiga todo mi ser su santo nombre!
2 ¡Bendice, alma mía, al Señor,
y no olvides ninguna de sus bendiciones!
3 El Señor perdona todas tus maldades,
y sana todas tus dolencias.
4 El Señor te rescata de la muerte,
y te colma de favores y de su misericordia.
5 El Señor te sacia con los mejores alimentos
para que renueves tus fuerzas, como el águila.
6 El Señor imparte justicia y defiende
a todos los que sufren por la violencia.
7 Dio a conocer sus caminos a Moisés;
los hijos de Israel vieron sus obras.
8 El Señor es misericordioso y clemente;(A)
es lento para la ira, y grande en misericordia.
9 No nos reprende todo el tiempo,
ni tampoco para siempre nos guarda rencor.
10 No nos ha tratado como merece nuestra maldad,
Ni nos ha castigado como merecen nuestros pecados.
11 Tan alta como los cielos sobre la tierra,
es su misericordia con los que le honran.
12 Tan lejos como está el oriente del occidente,
alejó de nosotros nuestras rebeliones.
13 El Señor se compadece de los que le honran
con la misma compasión del padre por sus hijos,
14 pues él sabe de qué estamos hechos;
¡él bien sabe que estamos hecho de polvo!
15 Nuestros días son como la hierba:
florecemos como las flores del campo,
16 pero pasa el viento sobre nosotros
y desaparecemos, sin dejar ninguna huella.
17 Pero el Señor es eternamente misericordioso;
él les hace justicia a quienes le honran,
y también a sus hijos y descendientes,
18 a quienes cumplen con su pacto
y no se olvidan de sus mandamientos,
sino que los ponen en práctica.
19 El Señor ha afirmado su trono en los cielos,
y su reino domina sobre todos los reinos.
20 ¡Bendigan al Señor, ustedes, ángeles poderosos
que cumplen sus órdenes y obedecen su voz!
21 ¡Bendigan al Señor todos sus ejércitos,
todos ustedes, sus siervos, que cumplen su voluntad!
22 ¡Bendigan al Señor ustedes, sus criaturas,
en todos los lugares de su dominio!
¡Bendice, alma mía, al Señor!
