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