A psalm of praise. Of David.
1I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.

2Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.

3Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.

4One generation will commend your works to another;
they will tell of your mighty acts.

5They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty,
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.Dead Sea Scrolls and Syriac (see also Septuagint); Masoretic Text On the glorious splendor of your majesty / and on your wonderful works I will meditate

6They will tell of the power of your awesome works,
and I will proclaim your great deeds.

7They will celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.

8The LORD is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.

9The LORD is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made.

10All you have made will praise you, O LORD;
your saints will extol you.

11They will tell of the glory of your kingdom
and speak of your might,

12so that all men may know of your mighty acts
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.

13Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures through all generations.
The LORD is faithful to all his promises
and loving toward all he has made.One manuscript of the Masoretic Text, Dead Sea Scrolls and Syriac (see also Septuagint); most manuscripts of the Masoretic Text do not have the last two lines of verse 13.

14The LORD upholds all those who fall
and lifts up all who are bowed down.

15The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food at the proper time.

16You open your hand
and satisfy the desires of every living thing.

17The LORD is righteous in all his ways
and loving toward all he has made.

18The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
19He fulfills the desires of those who fear him;
he hears their cry and saves them.

20The LORD watches over all who love him,
but all the wicked he will destroy.

21My mouth will speak in praise of the LORD.
Let every creature praise his holy name
for ever and ever.

Psalm 146
1Praise the LORD.Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 10
Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2I will praise the LORD all my life;
I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

3Do not put your trust in princes,
in mortal men, who cannot save.

4When their spirit departs, they return to the ground;
on that very day their plans come to nothing.

5Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the LORD his God,

6the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them—
the LORD, who remains faithful forever.

7He upholds the cause of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry.
The LORD sets prisoners free,

8the LORD gives sight to the blind,
the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down,
the LORD loves the righteous.

9The LORD watches over the alien
and sustains the fatherless and the widow,
but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

10The LORD reigns forever,
your God, O Zion, for all generations.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 147
1Praise the LORD.Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 20
How good it is to sing praises to our God,
how pleasant and fitting to praise him!

2The LORD builds up Jerusalem;
he gathers the exiles of Israel.

3He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.

4He determines the number of the stars
and calls them each by name.

5Great is our Lord and mighty in power;
his understanding has no limit.

6The LORD sustains the humble
but casts the wicked to the ground.

7Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving;
make music to our God on the harp.

8He covers the sky with clouds;
he supplies the earth with rain
and makes grass grow on the hills.

9He provides food for the cattle
and for the young ravens when they call.

10His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his delight in the legs of a man;

11the LORD delights in those who fear him,
who put their hope in his unfailing love.

12Extol the LORD, O Jerusalem;
praise your God, O Zion,

13for he strengthens the bars of your gates
and blesses your people within you.

14He grants peace to your borders
and satisfies you with the finest of wheat.

15He sends his command to the earth;
his word runs swiftly.

16He spreads the snow like wool
and scatters the frost like ashes.

17He hurls down his hail like pebbles.
Who can withstand his icy blast?

18He sends his word and melts them;
he stirs up his breezes, and the waters flow.

19He has revealed his word to Jacob,
his laws and decrees to Israel.

20He has done this for no other nation;
they do not know his laws.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 148
1Praise the LORD.Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 14
Praise the LORD from the heavens,
praise him in the heights above.

2Praise him, all his angels,
praise him, all his heavenly hosts.

3Praise him, sun and moon,
praise him, all you shining stars.

4Praise him, you highest heavens
and you waters above the skies.

5Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for he commanded and they were created.

6He set them in place for ever and ever;
he gave a decree that will never pass away.

7Praise the LORD from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,

8lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
stormy winds that do his bidding,

9you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars,

10wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,

11kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,

12young men and maidens,
old men and children.

13Let them praise the name of the LORD,
for his name alone is exalted;
his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.

14He has raised up for his people a horn,Horn here symbolizes strong one, that is, king.
the praise of all his saints,
of Israel, the people close to his heart.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 149
1Praise the LORD.Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 9
Sing to the LORD a new song,
his praise in the assembly of the saints.

2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
let the people of Zion be glad in their King.

3Let them praise his name with dancing
and make music to him with tambourine and harp.

4For the LORD takes delight in his people;
he crowns the humble with salvation.

5Let the saints rejoice in this honor
and sing for joy on their beds.

6May the praise of God be in their mouths
and a double-edged sword in their hands,

7to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,

8to bind their kings with fetters,
their nobles with shackles of iron,

9to carry out the sentence written against them.
This is the glory of all his saints.
Praise the LORD.

5praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.

6Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD.
