[1] I will praise you, my God and King, and bless your name each day and forever. [3] Great is Jehovah! Greatly praise him! His greatness is beyond discovery! [4] Let each generation tell its children what glorious things he does. [5] I will meditate about your glory, splendor, majesty, and miracles. [6] Your awe-inspiring deeds shall be on every tongue; I will proclaim your greatness. [7] Everyone will tell about how good you are and sing about your righteousness. [8] Jehovah is kind and merciful, slow to get angry, full of love. [9] He is good to everyone, and his compassion is intertwined with everything he does. [10] All living things shall thank you, Lord, and your people will bless you. [11] They will talk together about the glory of your kingdom and mention examples of your power. [12] They will tell about your miracles and about the majesty and glory of your reign. [13] For your kingdom never ends. You rule generation after generation. [14] The Lord lifts the fallen and those bent beneath their loads. [15] The eyes of all mankind look up to you for help; you give them their food as they need it. [16] You constantly satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing. [17] The Lord is fair in everything he does and full of kindness. [18] He is close to all who call on him sincerely. [19] He fulfills the desires of those who reverence and trust him; he hears their cries for help and rescues them. [20] He protects all those who love him, but destroys the wicked. [21] I will praise the Lord and call on all men everywhere to bless his holy name forever and forever.
