Psalm 145
A praise psalm by David.*
145:1 I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever. 145:2 Every day I will praise you. I will extol your name forever and ever. 145:3 Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised! His greatness is unsearchable. 145:4 One generation will commend your works to another, and will declare your mighty acts. 145:5 Of the glorious majesty of your honor, of your wondrous works, I will meditate. 145:6 Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts. I will declare your greatness. 145:7 They will utter the memory of your great goodness, and will sing of your righteousness. 145:8 Yahweh is gracious, merciful, slow to anger, and of great loving kindness. 145:9 Yahweh is good to all. His tender mercies are over all his works. 145:10 All your works will give thanks to you, Yahweh. Your saints will extol you. 145:11 They will speak of the glory of your kingdom, and talk about your power; 145:12 to make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, the glory of the majesty of his kingdom. 145:13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. Your dominion endures throughout all generations. Yahweh is faithful in all his words, and loving in all his deeds. 145:14 Yahweh upholds all who fall, and raises up all those who are bowed down. 145:15 The eyes of all wait for you. You give them their food in due season. 145:16 You open your hand, and satisfy the desire of every living thing. 145:17 Yahweh is righteous in all his ways, and gracious in all his works. 145:18 Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. 145:19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him. He also will hear their cry, and will save them. 145:20 Yahweh preserves all those who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. 145:21 My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
