Psalms 145:3-21

31Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised; And His 2greatness is unsearchable.4One 3generation will praise Your works to another, And will declare Your mighty acts.5On the 4glorious 5splendor of Your majesty And 6on Your wonderful works, I will meditate.6People will speak of the 7power of Your 8awesome acts, And I will 9tell of Your greatness.7They will burst forth 10in speaking of Your 11abundant goodness, And will 12shout joyfully of Your righteousness.

8The Lord is 13gracious and compassionate; Slow to anger and great in mercy.9The Lord is 14good to all, And His 15mercies are over all His works.1016All Your works will give thanks to You, Lord, And Your 17godly ones will bless You.11They will speak of the 18glory of Your kingdom, And talk of Your might,12To 19make known to the sons of mankind 20Your mighty acts, And the 21glory of the majesty of 22Your kingdom.13Your kingdom is 23an 24everlasting kingdom, And Your dominion endures throughout all generations. 25The Lord is faithful in His words, And holy in all His works.

14The Lord 26supports all who fall, And 27raises up all who are bowed down.15The eyes of all 28look to You, And You 29give them their food in due time.16You 30open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17The Lord is 31righteous in all His ways, And kind in all His works.18The Lord is 32near to all who call on Him, To all who call on Him 33in truth.19He will 34fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He will also 35hear their cry for help and save them.20The Lord 36watches over all who love Him, But He will destroy all the 37wicked.21My 38mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, And 39all flesh will 40bless His holy name forever and ever.
