1A Praise of Beloved. I will exalt You, my God and King; I will bless Your name forever and ever.

2Every day I will bless You, and I will praise Your name forever and ever.

3Great is He-Who-Is and greatly to be praised; His greatness is unsearchable.

4One generation will commend Your works to the next, and will proclaim Your mighty acts—

5the glorious splendor of Your majesty. And I will meditate on Your wondrous works.

6They will proclaim the power of Your awesome deeds, and I will declare Your greatness.

7They will extol the fame of Your abundant goodness and sing joyfully of Your righteousness.

8He-Who-Is is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in loving devotion.

9He-Who-Is is good to all; His compassion rests on all He has made.

10All You have made will give You thanks, O He-Who-Is, and Your devoted ones will bless You.

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

12to make known to men 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 in all His words and kind in all His actions.

14He-Who-Is upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.

15The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food in season.

16You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17He-Who-Is is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds.

18He-Who-Is is near to all who call on Him, to all who call out to Him in truth.

19He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him; He hears their cry and saves them.

20He-Who-Is preserves all who love Him, but all the wicked He will destroy.

21My mouth will declare the praise of He-Who-Is; let every creature bless His devoted name forever and ever.
