The Psalms
Psalm 145
A Psalm of praise; of David.
145:1I will extol thee, my God, O King;
And I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
145:2Every day will I bless thee;
And I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
145:3Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised;
And his greatness is unsearchable.
145:4One generation shall laud thy works to another,
And shall declare thy mighty acts.
145:5Of the glorious majesty of thine honor,
And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.
145:6And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts;
And I will declare thy greatness.
145:7They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness,
And shall sing of thy righteousness.
145:8Jehovah is gracious, and merciful;
Slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.
145:9Jehovah is good to all;
And his tender mercies are over all his works.
145:10All thy works shall give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah;
And thy saints shall bless thee.
145:11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom,
And talk of thy power;
145:12To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,
And the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.
145:13Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
And thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
145:14Jehovah upholdeth all that fall,
And raiseth up all those that are bowed down.
145:15The eyes of all wait for thee;
And thou givest them their food in due season.
145:16Thou openest thy hand,
And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
145:17Jehovah is righteous in all his ways,
And gracious in all his works.
145:18Jehovah is nigh unto all them that call upon him,
To all that call upon him in truth.
145:19He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him;
He also will hear their cry and will save them.
145:20Jehovah preserveth all them that love him;
But all the wicked will he destroy.
145:21My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah;
And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
