THE ORIGINAL BIBLE

"Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words . . . and keep the things that are written in it . . ."
Revelation 1:3 "Every Scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." —2 Timothy 3:16-17

"For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart." —Hebrews 4:12

< previous     PSALM ONE HUNDRED FORTY-FIVE     next >

A praise psalm by David.

1 I will exalt you, my God, the King.

I will praise your name forever and ever.

2 Every day I will praise you.

I will extol your name forever and ever.

3 Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised!

His greatness is unsearchable.

4 One generation will commend your works to another,

and will declare your mighty acts.

5 Of the glorious majesty of your honor,

of your wondrous works, I will meditate.

6 Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts.

I will declare your greatness.

7 They will utter the memory of your great goodness,

and will sing of your righteousness.

8 Jehovah is gracious, merciful,

slow to anger, and of great loving kindness.

9 Jehovah is good to all.

His tender mercies are over all his works.

10 All your works will give thanks to you, Jehovah.

Your saints will extol you.

11 They will speak of the glory of your kingdom,

and talk about your power;

12 to make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,

the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.

Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

Jehovah is faithful in all his words,

and loving in all his deeds.

14 Jehovah upholds all who fall,

and raises up all those who are bowed down.

15 The eyes of all wait for you.

You give them their food in due season.

16 You open your hand,

and satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17 Jehovah is righteous in all his ways,

and gracious in all his works.

18 Jehovah is near to all those who call on him,

to all who call on him in truth.

19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him.

He also will hear their cry, and will save them.

20 Jehovah preserves all those who love him,

but all the wicked he will destroy.

21 My mouth will speak the praise of Jehovah.

Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
