1 ¶ David's Psalm of praise. I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
|
|
2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
|
|
3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his1 greatness is unsearchable.
|
|
4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
|
|
5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.2
|
|
6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare3 thy greatness.
|
|
7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
|
|
8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great4 mercy.
|
|
9 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
|
|
10 ¶ All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.
|
|
11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;
|
|
12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.
|
|
13 Thy kingdom is an5 everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
|
|
14 The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.
|
|
15 The eyes of all wait6 upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.
|
|
16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
|
|
17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy7 in all his works.
|
|
18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
|
|
19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
|
|
20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.
|
|
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
