Psalms 145

1 <> [Aleph] I will extol thee, my God, my king, and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. 2 [Beth] Each day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. 3 [Gimel] Great [is] the LORD and greatly to be praised, and his greatness [is] unsearchable. 4 [Daleth] One generation shall praise thy works to another and shall declare thy mighty acts. 5 [He] I will speak of the beauty of the glory of thy majesty and of thy wondrous works. 6 [Vau] And [men] shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts, and I will declare thy greatness. 7 [Zain] They shall proclaim the memory of thy great goodness and shall sing [of] thy righteousness. 8 [Cheth] The LORD [is] gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and of great mercy. 9 [Teth] The LORD [is] good to all; and his tender mercies [shine] over all his works. 10 [Jod] Let all thy works praise thee, O LORD, and thy merciful ones bless thee. 11 [Caph] They speak of the glory of thy kingdom and talk of thy power, 12 [Lamed] to make known to the sons of Adam his mighty acts and the glory of the magnificence of his kingdom. 13 [Mem] Thy kingdom [is] a kingdom of all ages, and thy dominion [endures] throughout all generations. 14 [Samech] The LORD upholds all that fall and raises up all [those that are] oppressed. 15 [Ain] The eyes of all wait upon thee, and thou givest them their food in due season. 16 [Pe] Thou dost open thine hand and satisfy the desire [of] every living thing. 17 [Tzaddi] The LORD [is] righteous in all his ways and merciful in all his works. 18 [Koph] The LORD [is] near unto all those that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. 19 [Resh] He will fulfil the desire of those that fear him; he also will hear their cry and will save them. 20 [Schin] The LORD preserves all those that love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. 21 [Tau] My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD, and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.:
