Zabur 145

A praise psalm by Dawud.

 

1I will exalt you, my God, the King.

I will praise your name forever and ever.

2Every day I will praise you.

I will extol your name forever and ever.

3Great is Allah, and greatly to be praised!

His greatness is unsearchable.

4One generation will commend your works to another,

And will declare your mighty acts.

5Of the glorious majesty of your honour,

Of your wondrous works, I will meditate.

6Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts.

I will declare your greatness.

7They will remember your great goodness,

And will sing of your righteousness.

8Allah is gracious, merciful,

Slow to anger, and of great loving kindness.

9Allah is good to all.

His tender mercies are over all his works.

10All your works will give thanks to you, Allah.

Your saints will extol you.

11They will speak of the glory of your kingdom,

And talk about your power;

12To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts,

The glory of the majesty of his kingdom.

13Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.

Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

14Allah upholds all who fall,

And raises up all those who are bowed down.

15The eyes of all wait for you.

You give them their food in due season.

16You open your hand,

And satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17Allah is righteous in all his ways,

And gracious in all his works.

18Allah is near to all those who call on him,

To all who call on him in truth.

19He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him.

He also will hear their cry, and will save them.

20Allah preserves all those who love him,

But all the wicked he will destroy.

21My mouth will speak the praise of Allah.

Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
