Psalms 145
1 [Dauids Psalme of praise.] I will extoll thee, my God, O King: and I will blesse thy name for euer and euer. 2 Euery day wil I blesse thee: and I will praise thy Name for euer and euer. 3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and his greatnes is vnsearchable. 4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shal declare thy mightie actes. 5 I will speake of the glorious honour of thy maiestie: and of thy wonderous workes. 6 And men shall speake of the might of thy terrible acts: and I wil declare thy greatnesse. 7 They shall abundantly vtter the memory of thy great goodnesse: and shall sing of thy righteousnesse. 8 The Lord is gracious and full of compassion: slow to anger, and of great mercy. 9 The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are ouer all his workes.
10 All thy workes shall praise thee, O Lord: and thy Saints shal blesse thee. 11 They shall speake of the glory of thy kingdome: and talke of thy power. 12 To make knowen to the sonnes of men his mightie actes: and the glorious Maiestie of his kingdome. 13 Thy kingdome is an euerlasting kingdome: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. 14 The Lord vpholdeth all that fall: and raiseth vp all those that bee bowed downe. 15 The eyes of all waite vpon thee: and thou giuest them their meat in due season. 16 Thou openest thine hand: and satisfiest the desire of euery liuing thing. 17 The Lord is righteous in all his wayes: and holy in all his works. 18 The Lord is nigh vnto all them that call vpon him: to all that call vpon him in trueth. 19 Hee will fulfill the desire of them that feare him: he also will heare their cry, and will saue them. 20 The Lord preserueth all them that loue him: but all the wicked will he destroy. 21 My mouth shall speake the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh blesse his holy Name for euer and euer.
