Psalms 145:4

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

3 Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised; His greatness is unsearchable.

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

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

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

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
