Chapter 145

¹Praise by David. I exalt Thee, my God, O king, And bless Thy name to the age and for ever. ²Every day do I bless Thee, And praise Thy name to the age and for ever. ³Great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, And of His greatness there is no searching. ⁴Generation to generation praiseth Thy works, And Thy mighty acts they declare. ⁵The honour -- the glory of Thy majesty, And the matters of Thy wonders I declare. ⁶And the strength of Thy fearful acts they tell, And Thy greatness I recount. ⁷The memorial of the abundance of Thy goodness they send forth. And Thy righteousness they sing. ⁸Gracious and merciful [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and great in kindness. ⁹Good [is] Jehovah to all, And His mercies [are] over all His works. ¹⁰Confess Thee O Jehovah, do all Thy works, And Thy saints do bless Thee. ¹¹The honour of Thy kingdom they tell, And [of] Thy might they speak, ¹²To make known to sons of men His mighty acts, The honour of the majesty of His kingdom. ¹³Thy kingdom [is] a kingdom of all ages, And Thy dominion [is] in all generations. ¹⁴Jehovah is supporting all who are falling, And raising up all who are bowed down. ¹⁵The eyes of all unto Thee do look, And Thou art giving to them their food in its season, ¹⁶Opening Thy hand, and satisfying The desire of every living thing. ¹⁷Righteous [is] Jehovah in all His ways, And kind in all His works. ¹⁸Near [is] Jehovah to all those calling Him, To all who call Him in truth. ¹⁹The desire of those fearing Him He doth, And their cry He heareth, and saveth them. ²⁰Jehovah preserveth all those loving Him, And all the wicked He destroyeth. ²¹The praise of Jehovah my mouth speaketh, And all flesh doth bless His holy name, To the age and for ever!
