Psalms 145
Yahweh's Greatness Is Unsearchable
1 I will (C1)exalt You, (C2)my God, O King,
And I will (C3)bless Your name forever and ever.
2 Every day I will bless You,
And I will (C1)praise Your name forever and ever.
3 (C1)Great is Yahweh, and highly to be praised,
And His (C2)greatness is unsearchable.
4 One (C1)generation shall laud Your works to another,
And shall declare Your mighty deeds.
5 On the (C1)glorious (F1)splendor of Your majesty
And (C2)on the words of Your wondrous deeds, I will muse.
6 Men shall speak of the strength of Your (F1)(C1)fearsome acts,
And I will (C2)recount Your greatness.
7 They shall pour forth the memory of Your (C1)abundant goodness
And will (C2)shout joyfully of Your righteousness.
8 Yahweh is (C1)gracious and compassionate;
Slow to anger and great in lovingkindness.
9 Yahweh is (C1)good to all,
And His (C2)compassions are over all His works.
10 (C1)All Your works, O Yahweh, shall give thanks to You,
And Your (C2)holy ones shall bless You.
11 They shall speak of the (C1)glory of Your kingdom
And talk of Your might;
12 To (C1)make known to the sons of men His mighty deeds
And the (C2)glory of the majesty of His kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is (F1)an (C1)everlasting kingdom,
And Your dominion endures from generation to every generation.
14 Yahweh (C1)sustains all who fall
And (C2)raises up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all wait on You,
And You (C1)give them their food in due time.
16 You (C1)open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 Yahweh is (C1)righteous in all His ways
And holy in all His works.
18 Yahweh is (C1)near to all who call upon Him,
To all who call upon Him (C2)in truth.
19 He will (C1)work out the desire of those who fear Him;
He will (C2)hear their cry for help and He will save them.
20 Yahweh (C1)keeps all who love Him,
But all the (C2)wicked He will destroy.
21 My (C1)mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh,
And (C2)all flesh will (C3)bless His holy name forever and ever.
