Psalms 145 / 150
- 1
(Great Is the Lord) A Song of Praise. Of David.
I will extol you, my God and King,
and bless your name forever and ever.
- 2
Every day I will bless you
and 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 commend your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
- 5
On the glorious splendor of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
- 6
They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds,
and I will declare your greatness.
- 7
They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
- 8
The Lord is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
- 9
The Lord is good to all,
and his mercy is over all that he has made.
- 10
All your works shall give thanks to you, O Lord,
and all your saints shall bless you!
- 11
They shall speak of the glory of your kingdom
and tell of your power,
- 12
to make known to the children of man your mighty deeds,
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
- 13
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures throughout all generations.
[The Lord is faithful in all his words
and kind in all his works.]
- 14
The Lord upholds all who are falling
and raises up all who are bowed down.
- 15
The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food in due season.
- 16
You open your hand;
you satisfy the desire of every living thing.
- 17
The Lord is righteous in all his ways
and kind in all his works.
- 18
The Lord is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
- 19
He fulfills the desire of those who fear him;
he also hears their cry and saves them.
- 20
The Lord preserves all who love him,
but all the wicked he will destroy.
- 21
My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord,
and let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
