< Psalms 145 >

1 A psalm of David. A song of praise. I will glorify you, my God and King! I will praise who you are forever and ever!
A Psalm of Praise. David’s. I will extol thee, my God, O King, and will bless thy Name, to times age-abiding and beyond:
2 I will praise you every day; I will praise your character forever and ever!
Every day, will I bless thee, and praise thy Name, to times age-abiding and beyond.
3 The Lord is great and deserves much praise! His greatness cannot be measured!
Great is Yahweh—and worthy to be heartily praised, And, his greatness, is unsearchable.
4 Let every generation tell the next all that you do, sharing the stories of your amazing miracles!
Generation unto generation, shall celebrate thy works, and, thy mighty deeds, shall they tell:
5 They will speak of your majesty, your glorious splendor, and I will meditate on the wonderful things you have done.
The splendour of the glory of thy majesty, shall they speak, and, thy wonders, will I utter.
6 They will speak of the power of your awesome actions, and I will say how wonderful you are.
And, the might of thy terrible acts, shall men speak, and, as for thy greatness, I will recount it.
7 They will explain to everyone how famous you are for your tremendous goodness, and joyfully celebrate how you always do what is right.
The memory of thy great goodness, shall men pour forth, and, thy righteousness, shall they shout aloud.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, not easily angered, and full of trustworthy love.
Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh, —slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.
9 The Lord is good to everyone, and he shows mercy to all his created beings.
Good is Yahweh to all, and, his tender compassions, are over all his works.
10 All the created beings will thank you, Lord, and all who faithfully follow you will praise you.
All thy works, O Yahweh, will give thanks unto thee, —and, thy men of lovingkindness, will bless thee:
11 They will praise the glory of your kingdom, and talk about your power.
The glory of thy kingdom, will they tell, —and, thy power, will they speak.
12 They will explain to people your wonderful miracles, and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
To make known to the sons of men, his mighty deeds, and the splendid glory of his kingdom.
13 Your kingdom never ends, and your rule continues for all generations. What the Lord promises can always be trusted; he is merciful in all he does.
Thy kingdom, is a kingdom of all ages, —and, thy dominion, is over generation after generation.
14 The Lord helps up all those who fall down; he lifts up all those who are bowed down.
Yahweh is ready to uphold all who are falling, and to raise all who are laid prostrate.
15 All eyes are on you, waiting in hope, and you give food at just the right time.
The eyes of all, for thee, do wait, and, thou, givest them their food in its season.
16 You give generously and satisfy the needs of every living thing.
Thou, openest thy hand, and fillest every living thing with gladness.
17 The Lord does right in everything—his actions are always trustworthy.
Righteous is Yahweh in all his ways, and kind in all his works.
18 The Lord is close to all who ask for his help, to all who ask in sincerity.
Near is Yahweh to all who call upon him, —to all them who call upon him in faithfulness.
19 He satisfies the needs of those who follow him. He hears their cries for help and he saves them.
The desire of them who revere him, will he fulfil, and, their cry, will he hear, and will save them.
20 The Lord takes care of all those who love him, but he will destroy all those who are wicked.
Yahweh preserveth all who love him, but, all the lawless, will he destroy.
21 I will speak in praise of the Lord, and may everyone honor his holy character, forever and ever.
The praise of Yahweh, my mouth shall speak, That all flesh may bless his holy Name, Unto times age-abiding and beyond.
