Psalms 145

1 David's [Psalm of] praise. I will exalt you, my God, my king; and I will bless your 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 you, and I will praise your 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 The Lord is great, and greatly to be praised; and there is no end to his greatness.

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end.

4 Generation after generation shall praise your works, and tell of your power.

Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.

5 And they shall speak of the glorious majesty of your holiness, and recount your wonders.

They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works.

6 And they shall speak of the power of your terrible [acts]; and recount your greatness.

And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness.

7 They shall utter the memory of the abundance of your goodness, and shall exult in your righteousness.

They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice.

8 The Lord is compassionate, and merciful; long suffering, and abundant in mercy.

The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy.

9 The Lord is good to those that wait [on him]; and his compassions are over all his works.

The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

10 Let all your works, O Lord, give thanks to you; and let your saints bless you.

Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee.

11 They shall speak of the glory of your kingdom, and talk of your dominion;

They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power:

12 to make known to the sons of men your power, and the glorious majesty of your kingdom.

To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom.

13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion [endures] through all generations. The Lord is faithful in his words, and holy in all his works.

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 The Lord supports all that are falling, and sets up all that are broken down.

The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down.

15 The eyes of all wait upon you; and you give [them] their food in due season.

The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season.

16 You open your hands, and fill every living thing with pleasure.

Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature.

17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works.

18 The Lord is near to all that call upon him, to 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 will perform the desire of them that fear him: and he will hear their supplication, and save them.

He will do the will of them that fear him: and he will hear their prayer, and save them.

20 The Lord preserves all that love him: but all sinners he will utterly destroy.

The Lord keepeth all them that love him; but all the wicked he will destroy.

21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: 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.
