Psalms 145

Jehovah extolled for his goodness and power.

A Psalm of praise; of David.

¹I will extol thee, my God, O King; And I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

²Every day will I bless thee; And I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

³Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised; And his greatness is unsearchable.

⁴One generation shall laud thy works to another, And shall declare thy mighty acts.

⁵Of the glorious majesty of thine honor, And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.

⁶And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts; And I will declare thy greatness.

⁷They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness, And shall sing of thy righteousness.

⁸Jehovah is gracious, and merciful; Slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.

⁹Jehovah is good to all; And his tender mercies are over all his works.

¹⁰All thy works shall give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah; And thy saints shall bless thee.

¹¹They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, And talk of thy power;

¹²To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, And the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

¹³Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And thy dominion [endureth] throughout all generations.

¹⁴Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all those that are bowed down.

¹⁵The eyes of all wait for thee; And thou givest them their food in due season.

¹⁶Thou openest thy hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

¹⁷Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, And gracious in all his works.

¹⁸Jehovah is nigh unto all them that call upon him, To all that call upon him in truth.

¹⁹He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him; He also will hear their cry and will save them.

²⁰Jehovah preserveth all them that love him; But all the wicked will he destroy.

²¹My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
