< Psalms 145 >

1 “A hymn of praise by David.” I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever 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 Every day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
Every day, will I bless thee, and praise thy Name, to times age-abiding and beyond.
3 Great is the Lord, and greatly praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.
Great is Yahweh—and worthy to be heartily praised, And, his greatness, is unsearchable.
4 One generation shall praise thy works to the other, and thy mighty acts shall they declare.
Generation unto generation, shall celebrate thy works, and, thy mighty deeds, shall they tell:
5 On the majestic glory of thy excellence, and on thy wondrous deeds will I meditate.
The splendour of the glory of thy majesty, shall they speak, and, thy wonders, will I utter.
6 And of the might of thy terrible acts shall men converse: and thy greatness will I relate.
And, the might of thy terrible acts, shall men speak, and, as for thy greatness, I will recount it.
7 The memorial of thy abundant goodness shall they loudly proclaim, and they shall sing joyfully of thy righteousness.
The memory of thy great goodness, shall men pour forth, and, thy righteousness, shall they shout aloud.
8 Gracious and merciful is the Lord, long-suffering, and great in kindness.
Gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh, —slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.
9 The Lord is good to all, and his mercies are over all his works.
Good is Yahweh to all, and, his tender compassions, are over all his works.
10 All thy works shall thank thee, O Lord; and thy pious servants shall bless thee.
All thy works, O Yahweh, will give thanks unto thee, —and, thy men of lovingkindness, will bless thee:
11 Of the glory of thy kingdom shall they converse, and of thy might shall they speak:
The glory of thy kingdom, will they tell, —and, thy power, will they speak.
12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
To make known to the sons of men, his mighty deeds, and the splendid glory of his kingdom.
13 Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all eternities, and thy dominion [subsisteth] throughout all generations.
Thy kingdom, is a kingdom of all ages, —and, thy dominion, is over generation after generation.
14 The Lord upholdeth all who are falling, and raiseth 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 The eyes of all wait hopefully upon thee, and thou givest them their food in its due season.
The eyes of all, for thee, do wait, and, thou, givest them their food in its season.
16 Thou openest thy hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
Thou, openest thy hand, and fillest every living thing with gladness.
17 Righteous is the Lord in all his ways, and beneficent in all his works.
Righteous is Yahweh in all his ways, and kind in all his works.
18 The Lord is nigh unto all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
Near is Yahweh to all who call upon him, —to all them who call upon him in faithfulness.
19 The desire of those who fear him will he fulfill, and their cry will he hear, and save them.
The desire of them who revere him, will he fulfil, and, their cry, will he hear, and will save them.
20 The Lord preserveth all those who love him; but all the wicked will he destroy.
Yahweh preserveth all who love him, but, all the lawless, will he destroy.
21 The praise of the Lord shall my mouth speak: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
The praise of Yahweh, my mouth shall speak, That all flesh may bless his holy Name, Unto times age-abiding and beyond.
