Psalm 145

I Will Exalt You, My God and King

A Psalm of praise. Of David.^a

¹ I will exalt You, my God and King;

I will bless Your name forever and ever.

² Every day I will bless You,

and I will praise Your name forever and ever.

³ Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised;

His greatness is unsearchable.

⁴ One generation will commend Your works to the next,

and will proclaim Your mighty acts—

⁵ the glorious splendor of Your majesty.

And I will meditate on Your wondrous works.

⁶ They will proclaim the power of Your awesome deeds,

and I will declare Your greatness.

⁷ They will extol the fame of Your abundant goodness

and sing joyfully of Your righteousness.

⁸ The LORD is gracious and compassionate,

slow to anger and abounding in loving devotion.

⁹ The LORD is good to all;

His compassion rests on all He has made.

¹⁰ All You have made will give You thanks, O LORD,

and Your saints will bless You.

¹¹ They will tell of the glory of Your kingdom

and speak of Your might,

¹² to make known to men Your mighty acts

and the glorious splendor of Your kingdom.

¹³ Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

and Your dominion endures through all generations.

The LORD is faithful in all His words

and kind in all His actions.^b

¹⁴ The LORD upholds all who fall

and lifts up all who are bowed down.

¹⁵ The eyes of all look to You,

and You give them their food in season.

¹⁶ You open Your hand

and satisfy the desire of every living thing.

¹⁷ The LORD is righteous in all His ways

and kind in all His deeds.

¹⁸ The LORD is near to all who call on Him,

to all who call out to Him in truth.

¹⁹ He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him;

He hears their cry and saves them.

²⁰ The LORD preserves all who love Him,

but all the wicked He will destroy.

²¹ My mouth will declare the praise of the LORD;

let every creature bless His holy name

forever and ever.
