1901 American Standard Version (ASV)

1 David praiseth God for his fame, 8 for his goodness, 11 for his Kingdom, 14 for his providence, 17 for his saving mercy.

145:1 ¶ [[[A Psalm of] praise; of David.]] I will extol thee, my God, O King; And I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

145:2 Every day will I bless thee; And I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

145:3 Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised; And his greatness is unsearchable.

145:4 One generation shall laud thy works to another, And shall declare thy mighty acts.

145:5 Of the glorious majesty of thine honor, And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.

145:6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts; And I will declare thy greatness.

145:7 They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness, And shall sing of thy righteousness.

145:8 Jehovah is gracious, and merciful; Slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.

145:9 Jehovah is good to all; And his tender mercies are over all his works.

145:10 All thy works shall give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah; And thy saints shall bless thee.

145:11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, And talk of thy power;

145:12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, And the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

145:13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And thy dominion [endureth] throughout all generations.

145:14 Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all those that are bowed down.

145:15 The eyes of all wait for thee; And thou givest them their food in due season.

145:16 Thou openest thy hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

145:17 Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, And gracious in all his works.

145:18 Jehovah is nigh unto all them that call upon him, To all that call upon him in truth.

145:19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him; He also will hear their cry and will save them.

145:20 Jehovah preserveth all them that love him; But all the wicked will he destroy.

145:21 My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.
