From Psalm 145...I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. 2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. 3 Great is YHVH, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. 4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. 5 I will speak of the glorious honor of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works. 6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness. 7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness. 8 YHVH is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. 9 YHVH is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. 10 ¶ All thy works shall praise thee, O YHVH; and thy saints shall bless thee.
