Psalms of David - Modern Translation - Psalm 145

I will exalt You, my God and King,
and bless Your name forever and ever.

Every day I will bless You,
and praise Your name throughout all time.

Great is the Lord, and most worthy of praise;
His greatness is beyond all understanding.

One generation will speak of Your works to another,
and declare Your mighty acts.

I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty
and on Your wondrous works.

They will proclaim the power of Your awesome deeds,
and I will tell of Your greatness.

They will celebrate the abundance of Your goodness
and joyfully sing of Your righteousness.

The Lord is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.

The Lord is good to all,
and His mercy is over all He has made.

All You have made will praise You, O Lord,
and Your faithful ones will bless You.

They will speak of the glory of Your kingdom,
and tell of Your mighty power,

So that all people may know of Your mighty acts,
and the glorious splendor of Your kingdom.

Your kingdom is everlasting,
and Your rule endures throughout all time.

The Lord is faithful in all His promises,
and loving in all He does.

The Lord lifts up all who fall,
and raises up those who are bowed down.

The eyes of all look to You,
and You give them their food in due season.

You open Your hand,
and satisfy the desires of every living thing.

The Lord is righteous in all His ways,
and faithful in all He does.

The Lord is near to all who call on Him,
to all who call on Him in truth.

He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him;
He hears their cries and saves them.

The Lord watches over all who love Him,
but those who choose destruction will fade away.

My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord,
and let all people bless His holy name
throughout all time.
