1 I will extol thee, myGod, O King, and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
1Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.
1 Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
2Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:
2Every day will I give you blessing, praising your name for ever and ever.
3 Great is Jehovah, and exceedingly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
3In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.
3Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; his power may never be searched out.
4 One generation shall laud thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
4His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.
4One generation after another will give praise to your great acts, and make clear the operation of your strength.
5 I will speak of the glorious splendour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.
5Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:
5My thoughts will be of the honour and glory of your rule, and of the wonder of your works.
6 And they shall tell of the might of thy terrible acts; and thy great deeds will I declare.
6Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.
6Men will be talking of the power and fear of your acts; I will give word of your glory.
7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
7Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:
7Their sayings will be full of the memory of all your mercy, and they will make songs of your righteousness.
8 Jehovah is gracious and merciful; slow to anger, and of great loving-kindness.
8The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.
8The Lord is full of grace and pity; not quickly angry, but great in mercy.
9 Jehovah is good to all; and his tender mercies are over all his works.
9The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.
9The Lord is good to all men; and his mercies are over all his works.
10 All thy works shall praise thee, Jehovah, and thy saints shall bless thee.
10The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
10All the works of your hands give praise to you, O Lord; and your saints give you blessing.
11 They shall tell of the glory of thy kingdom, and speak of thy power;
11(not in this translation)
11Their words will be of the glory of your kingdom, and their talk of your strength;
12 To make known to the children of men his mighty acts, and the glorious splendour of his kingdom.
12(not in this translation)
12So that the sons of men may have knowledge of his acts of power, and of the great glory of his kingdom.
13 Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages, and thy dominion is throughout all generations.

13Your kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and your rule is through all generations.
14 Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all that are bowed down.
14(not in this translation)
14The Lord is the support of all who are crushed, and the lifter up of all who are bent down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their food in its season.
15(not in this translation)
15The eyes of all men are waiting for you; and you give them their food in its time.
16 Thou openest thy hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
16(not in this translation)
16By the opening of your hand, every living thing has its desire in full measure.
17 Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, and kind in all his works.

17The Lord is upright in all his ways, and kind in all his works.
18 Jehovah is nigh unto all that call upon him, unto all that call upon him in truth.
18(not in this translation)

19 He fulfilleth the desire of them that fear him; he heareth their cry, and saveth them.

19To his worshippers, he will give their desire; their cry comes to his ears, and he gives them salvation.
