Context of Psalms 103:18
16For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; And the place thereof shall know it no more. 17But the lovingkindness of Jehovah is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, And his righteousness unto children’s children; To such as keep his covenant, And to those that remember his precepts to do them. 19Jehovah hath established his throne in the heavens; And his kingdom ruleth over all. 20Bless Jehovah, ye his angels, That are mighty in strength, that fulfil his word, Hearkening unto the voice of his word.
