145 1 I will extol you, my God and King,
and bless your name for ever and ever.
145 2 Every day I will bless you,
and praise your name for ever and ever.
145 3 Great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised,
and his greatness is unsearchable.
145 4 One generation shall laud your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
145 5 On the glorious splendour of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
145 6 Men shall proclaim the might of your terrible acts,
and I will declare your greatness.
145 7 They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness,
and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
145 8 Yahweh is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
145 9 Yahweh is good to all,
and his compassion is over all that he has made.
145 10 All your works shall give thanks to you, O Yahweh,
and all your saints shall bless you!
145 11 They shall speak of the glory of your kingdom,
and tell of your power,
145 12 to make known to the sons of men your mighty deeds,
and the glorious splendour of your kingdom.
145 13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures throughout all generations.
Yahweh is faithful in all his words,
and gracious in all his deeds.
145 14 Yahweh upholds all who are falling,
and raises up all who are bowed down.
145 15 The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food in due season.
145 16 You open your hand,
you satisfy the desire of every living thing.
145 17 Yahweh is just in all his ways,
and kind in all his doings.
145 18 Yahweh is near to all who call upon him,
to all who call upon him in truth.
145 19 He fulfils the desire of all who fear him,
he also hears their cry, and saves them.
145 20 Yahweh preserves all who love him;
but all the wicked he will destroy.
145 21 My mouth shall speak the praise of Yahweh,
and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
