大卫的赞美诗。 1 我的　神，我的王啊！我要尊崇你，*本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题

我要永永远远称颂你的名。

2 我要天天称颂你，

我要永永远远赞美你的名。

3 耶和华是至大的，配受极大的赞美，

他的伟大无法测度。

4 世世代代的人都要颂赞你的作为，

他们要传扬你大能的作为。

5 他们要讲述你威严的尊荣，

我也要默想你奇妙的作为。

6 他们要述说你所行可畏的事的能力，

我也要宣扬你的伟大。

7 他们要传述你可记念、至善的名，

也要歌唱你的公义。

8 耶和华有恩典有怜悯，

不轻易发怒，大有慈爱。

9 耶和华善待万有，

他的怜悯临到他一切所造的。

10 耶和华啊！你一切所造的都要称谢你，

你的圣民也要称颂你。

11 他们要讲论你国的荣耀，

也要述说你大能的作为。

12 好使世人知道你大能的作为，

和你国威严的尊荣。

13 你的国是永远的国，

你的王权存到万代*七十士译本加上「主在他的话是信实的，在他一切的作为都是圣洁的」﹔死海古卷则有「　神在他的话是信实的，在他一切的作为都是慈爱的」和「耶和华是应当称颂的，应当永远称颂他的名」等句。

14 跌倒的，耶和华都扶持他们；

被压迫的，他都扶他们起来。

15 万人的眼睛都仰望你，

你按时把粮食赐给他们。

16 你把手张开，

使所有生物都随愿得到饱足。

17 耶和华在他一切所行的事上，都是公义的，

他对他一切所造的，都存着慈爱的心。

18 凡是求告耶和华的，耶和华都和他们接近，

就是和所有真诚求告他的人接近。

19 敬畏他的，他必成就他们的心愿，

也必听他们的呼求，拯救他们。

20 耶和华保护所有爱他的人，

却要消灭所有恶人。

21 我的口要说赞美耶和华的话；

愿所有的人都永永远远称颂他的圣名。
