Psalm 145

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 the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
⁴One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
⁵I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.
⁶And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.
⁷They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.
⁸The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
⁹The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
¹⁰All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; 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 glorious majesty of his kingdom.
¹³Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.
¹⁴The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.
¹⁵The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.
¹⁶Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
¹⁷The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
¹⁸The Lord 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.
²⁰The Lord preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.
²¹My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

¹¹The fear of the Lord is honour, and glory, and gladness, and a crown of rejoicing.
¹²The fear of the Lord maketh a merry heart, and giveth joy, and gladness, and a long life.
¹³Whoso feareth the Lord, it shall go well with him at the last, and he shall find favour in the day of his death.
¹⁴To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and it was created with the faithful in the womb.
¹⁵She hath built an everlasting foundation with men, and she shall continue with their seed.
¹⁶To fear the Lord is fulness of wisdom, and filleth men with her fruits.
¹⁷She filleth all their house with things desirable, and the garners with her increase.
¹⁸The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, making peace and perfect health to flourish; both which are the gifts of God: and it enlargeth their rejoicing that love him.
¹⁹Wisdom raineth down skill and knowledge of understanding, and exalteth them to honour that hold her fast.
²⁰The root of wisdom is to fear the Lord, and the branches thereof are long life.
²⁶If thou desire wisdom, keep the commandments, and the Lord shall give her unto thee.
²⁷For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction: and faith and meekness are his delight.

15We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
²Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
³For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
⁴For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
⁵Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:
⁶That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
⁷Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.
⁸Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
⁹And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.
¹⁰And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
¹¹And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.
¹²And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.
¹³Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
¹⁴And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
¹⁵Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God,
¹⁶That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.
