Psalms 103: 1-5
Psalms 103: 1-5 is a passage from the Book of Psalms in the Old Testament of the Bible. It is part of a psalm of David that praises God for His mercy and compassion. The passage reads as follows:
"Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the Lord, 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 passage expresses the speaker's gratitude to God for His blessings and forgiveness. It also acknowledges God's power and goodness in restoring and renewing the speaker's life. The passage uses poetic imagery and repetition to emphasize the speaker's devotion and joy.
