- 1[A Psalm of David.] Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.לְדָוִ֨ד בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת יְהוָ֑ה וְכָל קְ֝רָבַ֗י אֶת שֵׁ֥ם קָדְשֽׁוֹ
- 2Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת יְהוָ֑ה וְאַל תִּ֝שְׁכְּחִ֗י כָּל גְּמוּלָֽיו
- 3Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;הַסֹּלֵ֥חַ לְכָל עֲוֺנֵ֑כִי הָ֝רֹפֵ֗א לְכָל תַּחֲלֻאָֽיְכִי
- 4Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;הַגּוֹאֵ֣ל מִשַּׁ֣חַת חַיָּ֑יְכִי הַֽ֝מְעַטְּרֵ֗כִי חֶ֣סֶד וְרַחֲמִֽים
- 5Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.הַמַּשְׂבִּ֣יַע בַּטּ֣וֹב עֶדְיֵ֑ךְ תִּתְחַדֵּ֖שׁ כַּנֶּ֣שֶׁר נְעוּרָֽיְכִי
- 6The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.עֹשֵׂ֣ה צְדָק֣וֹת יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝מִשְׁפָּטִ֗ים לְכָל עֲשׁוּקִֽים
- 7He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.יוֹדִ֣יעַ דְּרָכָ֣יו לְמֹשֶׁ֑ה לִבְנֵ֥י יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל עֲלִילֽוֹתָיו
- 8The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.רַח֣וּם וְחַנּ֣וּן יְהוָ֑ה אֶ֖רֶךְ אַפַּ֣יִם וְרַב חָֽסֶד
- 9He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.לֹֽא לָנֶ֥צַח יָרִ֑יב וְלֹ֖א לְעוֹלָ֣ם יִטּֽוֹר
- 10He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.לֹ֣א כַ֭חֲטָאֵינוּ עָ֣שָׂה וְלֹ֥א כַ֝עֲוֺנֹתֵ֗ינוּ גָּמַ֥ל עָלֵֽינוּ
- 11For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.כִּ֤י כִגְבֹ֣הַּ שָׁ֭מַיִם עַל הָאָ֑רֶץ גָּבַ֥ר חַ֝סְדּ֗וֹ עַל יְרֵאָֽיו
- 12As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.כִּרְחֹ֣ק מִ֭זְרָח מִֽמַּֽעֲרָ֑ב הִֽרְחִ֥יק מִ֝מֶּ֗נּוּ אֶת פְּשָׁעֵֽינוּ
- 13Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.כְּרַחֵ֣ם אָ֭ב עַל בָּנִ֑ים רִחַ֥ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה עַל יְרֵאָֽיו
- 14For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.כִּי ה֖וּא יָדַ֣ע יִצְרֵ֑נוּ זָ֝כ֗וּר כִּי עָפָ֥ר אֲנָֽחְנוּ
- 15As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.אֱ֭נוֹשׁ כֶּחָצִ֣יר יָמָ֑יו כְּצִ֥יץ הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה כֵּ֣ן יָצִֽיץ
- 16For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.כִּ֤י ר֣וּחַ עָֽבְרָה וְאֵינֶ֑נּוּ וְלֹא יַכִּירֶ֖נּוּ ע֣וֹד מְקוֹמֽוֹ
- 17But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;וְחֶ֤סֶד יְהוָ֨ה מֵעוֹלָ֣ם וְעַד ע֭וֹלָם עַל יְרֵאָ֑יו וְ֝צִדְקָת֗וֹ לִבְנֵ֥י בָנִֽים
- 18To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.לְשֹׁמְרֵ֥י בְרִית֑וֹ וּלְזֹכְרֵ֥י פִ֝קֻּדָ֗יו לַעֲשׂוֹתָֽם
- 19The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.יְֽהוָ֗ה בַּ֭שָּׁמַיִם הֵכִ֣ין כִּסְא֑וֹ וּ֝מַלְכוּת֗וֹ בַּכֹּ֥ל מָשָֽׁלָה
- 20Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.בָּרֲכ֥וּ יְהוָ֗ה מַלְאָ֫כָ֥יו גִּבֹּ֣רֵי כֹ֭חַ עֹשֵׂ֣י דְבָר֑וֹ לִ֝שְׁמֹ֗עַ בְּק֣וֹל דְּבָרֽוֹ
- 21Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.בָּרֲכ֣וּ יְ֭הוָה כָּל צְבָאָ֑יו מְ֝שָׁרְתָ֗יו עֹשֵׂ֥י רְצוֹנֽוֹ
- 22Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.בָּרֲכ֤וּ יְהוָ֨ה כָּֽל מַעֲשָׂ֗יו בְּכָל מְקֹמ֥וֹת מֶמְשַׁלְתּ֑וֹ בָּרֲכִ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י אֶת יְהוָֽה

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
