I Will Exalt You, My God and King

1I will extol thee, my God, O King; And I will bless thy name for ever and ever.+ 2Every day will I bless thee; And I will praise thy name for ever and ever.+ 3Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised; And his greatness is unsearchable.+ 4One generation shall laud thy works to another, And shall declare thy mighty acts.+ 5Of the glorious majesty of thine honor, And of thy wondrous works, will I meditate.+ 6And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts; And I will declare thy greatness.+ 7They shall utter the memory of thy great goodness, And shall sing of thy righteousness.+ 8Jehovah is gracious, and merciful; Slow to anger, and of great lovingkindness.+ 9Jehovah is good to all; And his tender mercies are over all his works.+ 10All thy works shall give thanks unto thee, O Jehovah; And thy saints shall bless thee.+ 11They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, And talk of thy power;+ 12To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, And the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.+ 13Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And thy dominion [endureth] throughout all generations.+ 14Jehovah upholdeth all that fall, And raiseth up all those that are bowed down.+ 15The eyes of all wait for thee; And thou givest them their food in due season.+ 16Thou openest thy hand, And satisfiest the desire of every living thing.+ 17Jehovah is righteous in all his ways, And gracious in all his works.+ 18Jehovah is nigh unto all them that call upon him, To all that call upon him in truth.+ 19He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him; He also will hear their cry and will save them.+ 20Jehovah preserveth all them that love him; But all the wicked will he destroy.+ 21My mouth shall speak the praise of Jehovah; And let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.+
