145 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

So, the Psalmist—and those who read the psalm—will extol the LORD and bless His name forever.

2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

The righteous, every day they should bless the LORD, and praise Him, through hardship and prosperity. Every day, they should put Him in remembrance.

3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.’

So, we cannot search the LORD’s greatness. He is far above our understanding. Even the angels in heaven do not understand His power, but the Mighty Cherubim—the Beast and Dragon—who rebelled against the LORD, they will know the full extent of God’s power at the end, and will succumb to wrath. As will the nations who rebelled against the LORD.

4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

So, a generation shall put the LORD’s mercies in remembrance, and tell it to the next generation. Right now is like that. We see how far depraved the world is, and those of us who can remember the LORD’s goodness to the world, remind people of the better days. Which certainly don’t exist anymore. But the LORD will restore them.

5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

So, the saints will speak of the LORD’s honor, and His wondrous works.

6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

And men shall speak of the LORD’s terrible acts. His judgments against the ungodly, and His utter destruction against the nations who do not wish to obey His law. As they create suffering by dishonoring it, so the LORD will destroy them utterly and finally, without fail.

7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

And the righteous, who were victims of the LORD’s enemies, shall rejoice, and speak of the goodness of the LORD, in giving them victory over His enemies, and theirs.

8 The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

The LORD deals with the wicked slowly, slowly drawing them closer and closer to their destruction, being ever merciful toward them, and giving them every chance to repent. Until they finally fall, and He breaks them into pieces by their own crimes and actions, and the righteous take notice, and speak of the LORD’s mercies afterward, that the LORD delivers them from affliction, and has given His enemies their just reward for being evil, and it makes the LORD’s enemies go silent.

9 The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

The LORD doesn’t wish to destroy the wicked, and is merciful with them, giving them every chance to repent, and turn from their wickedness, by bringing to mind the deep destruction of their crimes, and showing them the evil of their ways. He brings them into remembrance and uses the world to rebuke the ungodly, until they repent, or are destroyed.

10 All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee.

The LORD’s works shall praise Him. Everything the LORD works, shall praise Him. The wicked shall see their error, and know the deep suffering they’ve caused, and the righteous shall see the reward for being righteous, which is everlasting life in the Kingdom.

11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

In the kingdom of heaven, they shall talk of the LORD’s glory, and His power, and His utter destruction of the ungodly for the sorrows they’ve caused, and He shall be praised.

12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

So, we’re to make known the LORD’s dealings with falsehoods, and His judgments against the sinners, by destroying them utterly, and giving the Righteous reward in the Kingdom of Heaven.

13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

Heaven is an everlasting Kingdom, and Hell an everlasting reproach. The LORD will be magnified, that He destroyed the enemies of His people, Who hated them without cause, and did unspeakable evil to them, and He shall be above reproach, that the whole world shall know why they made their beds in hell, and why the LORD raised His saints above them.

14 The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

If you fall in your sin, or are made to stumble by the wicked, the LORD will uphold you, and keep you on the way. And when you’ve renounced your evil, which causes shame and suffering, HE shall lift you up, since you were bowed down under the oppression of God’s enemies, and their falsehoods.

15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.

Everyone, even the wicked, wait upon the LORD for their meat. Anything you receive, whether in this life or the next, comes from the LORD. That which is obtained unlawfully, shall break your teeth, like gravel in your mouth, and that which you’ve worked for, and acquired righteously, shall be a diadem. The righteousness you worked shall be for a blessing, and a remembrance for your soul, and the wickedness wrought by your enemies, to put you to shame,---though they caused you to lose your earthly reward even,---shall be put to everlasting shame for the evils they have wrongfully committed against you.

16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

The wicked are satisfied, and the righteous. But the righteous to everlasting life, and the wicked to everlasting torment.

17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

The LORD gives to His enemies a little in this life, so they cannot say He was cruel to them, and the wicked He shall lay in the dust, and destroy. The righteous, though they may have mourned in this life, will be raised up on the Last Day and made triumphant over God’s enemies.

18 The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

So, if you’re being burdened by the sin of your culture, and being oppressed by unlawful deeds, the LORD will see you, and cause you to be protected and sheltered, even against the deep wickedness, and you shall be made to stand, and be whole. If you call upon Him in truth, all mysteries shall be revealed, and you will be revealed anything the LORD needs to reveal, in order to make you a home in His kingdom, should you call upon Him faithfully and in Truth.

19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

So, the wicked’s desires He fulfills for a short time, that they may be filled, and He just when He destroys them, and the righteous shall be satisfied with everlasting bread, fortune and love. The wicked shall be in everlasting torment, that they had recourse to repent, but failed to do so, and walked after the error of Cain, and tried to cause their brother to stumble in the way.

20 The Lord preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.

The LORD preserves the righteous, Whom He loves. He gives them protection, and satisfies them with the finest grains, and the finest oils, and the finest wines. He doesn’t forsake them, that though they may sin and are not perfect, He rebukes them, and purges their iniquity in the flames of trial, and they come out like Gold, and He finally fulfills their desires like a waterbrook, and cleaves the rock and makes living waters flow from it. The wicked he will destroy through their own lusts even, and their own fatness and prosperity.

21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

And so for the LORD’s goodness, we shall rejoice in Him, in Zion, and shall be married to Her in righteousness, and peace and mercy, and shall be called “Faithful and Elect” and made an eternal heritage in the Kingdom, from which we cannot be moved.

It is a historical parable--like when Suetonius tells his stories, or Plutarch--of man coming into judgment and knowing right from wrong. The serpent is Satan, the deceiver, tempting Adam and Eve in their innocence--before they know how to tell right from wrong--and causing them to commit sin, where the sin is coming into the knowledge of sin. The Nakedness is Adam and Eve without the knowledge of sin, so they don't know it's shameful yet, until they eat from the fruit, and then they know why sin is sin. That's ultimately the core of why God has to judge the world, too, is that we corrupted it through our knowledge, and why Christ says "Judge not lest you be judged." Because judgment is the first sin humans acquired, from eating the fruit.
