< Psalms 145 >
1 A Psalm of praise. Of David. I will extol thee, my God, O King, and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
3 Great is Jehovah, and exceedingly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.
4 One generation shall laud thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.
5 I will speak of the glorious splendour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.
They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.
6 And they shall tell of the might of thy terrible acts; and thy great deeds will I declare.
And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.
7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.
8 Jehovah is gracious and merciful; slow to anger, and of great loving-kindness.
The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.
9 Jehovah is good to all; and his tender mercies are over all his works.
The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
10 All thy works shall praise thee, Jehovah, and thy saints shall bless thee.
Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.
11 They shall tell of the glory of thy kingdom, and speak of thy power;
They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:
12 To make known to the children of men his mighty acts, and the glorious splendour of his kingdom.
To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.
13 Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages, and thy dominion is throughout all generations.
Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. The Lord is faithful in all his words: and holy in all his works.
14 Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all that are bowed down.
The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their food in its season.
The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.
16 Thou openest thy hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.
17 Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, and kind in all his works.
The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works.
18 Jehovah is nigh unto all that call upon him, unto all that call upon him in truth.
The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him: to all that call upon him in truth.
19 He fulfilleth the desire of them that fear him; he heareth their cry, and saveth them.
He will do the will of them that fear him: and he will hear their prayer, and save them.
20 Jehovah keepeth all that love him, and all the wicked will he destroy.
The Lord keepeth all them that love him; but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless thy holy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever.
