Psalms 145 in plain modern English. New Ground English Translation.

I will lift you high, my God, my King — I will honor your name forever and always.

Every single day I will honor you — I will praise your name forever and always.

Yahweh is immeasurably great — worthy of all praise, his greatness is beyond anything anyone could ever explore.

One generation will celebrate your work to the next, telling the stories of what you have done.

I will speak of the stunning majesty of your splendor, and dwell on the stories of your wonders.

They will talk about the force of your awe-inspiring acts, and I — I will declare how great you are.

They will pour out the memory of your overwhelming goodness and shout for joy over how right and good you are.

Yahweh overflows with compassion and undeserved kindness, slow to get angry and rich in faithful love.

Yahweh is good to everyone, and his deep compassion reaches over everything he has made.

Everything you have made will give thanks to you, Yahweh, and those who are devoted to you will honor you.

They will speak of the splendor of your reign and talk about your power,

making your mighty acts known to all people — the stunning majesty of your reign.

Your reign stretches across every era, your rule endures through every generation.

Yahweh holds up everyone who is falling and lifts up everyone who is bent low.

Every eye looks to you with hope, and you give them their food right when they need it.

You open your hand and satisfy every living thing with what it desires.

Yahweh is just in all his ways and faithful in everything he does.

Yahweh is near to everyone who calls out to him — to everyone who calls out to him with an honest heart.

He fulfills the desires of everyone who stands in awe of him; he hears their cry and rescues them.

Yahweh protects everyone who loves him, but all who are corrupt — he will wipe them out.

My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh — let every living thing honor his set-apart name forever and always.
