PSALM 145
A Song of God’s Majesty and Love
A Praise of David.
1 I will extol You, my God, O King;
​​And I will bless Your name forever and ever.
2 ​​Every day I will bless You,
​​And I will praise Your name forever and ever.
3 ​​Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;
​​And His greatness is unsearchable.
​
4 ​​One generation shall praise Your works to another,
​​And shall declare Your mighty acts.
5 ​​I[fn] will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty,
​​And on Your wondrous works.[fn]
6 ​​Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts,
​​And I will declare Your greatness.
7 ​​They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness,
​​And shall sing of Your righteousness.
​
8 ​​The LORD is gracious and full of compassion,
​​Slow to anger and great in mercy.
9 ​​The LORD is good to all,
​​And His tender mercies are over all His works.
​
10 ​​All Your works shall praise You, O LORD,
​​And Your saints shall bless You.
11 ​​They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom,
​​And talk of Your power,
12 ​​To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts,
​​And the glorious majesty of His kingdom.
13 ​​Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
​​And Your dominion endures throughout all generations.[fn]
​
14 ​​The LORD upholds all who fall,
​​And raises up all who are bowed down.
15 ​​The eyes of all look expectantly to You,
​​And You give them their food in due season.
16 ​​You open Your hand
​​And satisfy the desire of every living thing.
​
17 ​​The LORD is righteous in all His ways,
​​Gracious in all His works.
18 ​​The LORD is near to all who call upon Him,
​​To all who call upon Him in truth.
19 ​​He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;
​​He also will hear their cry and save them.
20 ​​The LORD preserves all who love Him,
​​But all the wicked He will destroy.
21 ​​My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD,
​​And all flesh shall bless His holy name
​​Forever and ever.
