Psalm 145  (acrostic)                                                    Friday Evening 4.  Sunday Readings 3

I will exalt you, my God and King! * I will bless your name, O Eternal and Everlasting!

    Every day I will bless you, * and praise your name to everlasting eternity.

    Great is Yahweh, praiseworthy his Eminence, * for his greatness has no limit.

    Each generation will praise your works to the next, * and proclaim your mighty acts.

        O Majesty, they will describe your glorious splendor; * I will compose songs about your wonders.

        O Strength, they will tell of your awesome acts, * and I will recount your great deeds.

        They will recite the record of your goodness, Master, * and ring out your justice.

           Merciful and compassionate is Yahweh, * slow to anger and abounding in kindness.

           Yahweh's goodness is for all, * and his compassion is upon all his works.

All your works shall praise you, Yahweh, * and your worshipers shall bless you.

               They shall announce your glorious kingship, * and tell of your power,

               making known to the sons of men his mighty acts, * and the glorious splendor of his kingship.

               Your kingdom is an eternal kingdom, * and your dominion endures through all generations.

Yahweh is faithful in his words, * and gracious in all his deeds.

           Yahweh is the sustainer of all who fall, * and the uplifter of all bent down.

        The eyes of all wait for you, * for it is you who give them * their food in its season,

        you who open your hand, * and satisfy every living thing with your favor.

        Yahweh is just in all his ways, * and kind in all his works.

    Yahweh is near to all who call him, * to all who call him in truth.

    He performs the will of those who fear him; * he hears their cry and saves them.

    Yahweh is the protector of all who love him, * but all the wicked he will destroy.

The praise of Yahweh my mouth shall speak, * and all flesh shall bless his holy name, * for everlasting eternity.
