Trapp's Commentary on Psalms 145:2
Psalms 145:2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.Ver. 2. Every day will I bless thee] No day shall pass me without a morning and evening sacrifice; besides, what is more, upon all emergent occasions. The Jews have above a hundred benedictions which they are bound to say over every day; and one among the rest, for the benefit of evacuation. If I were a nightingale, saith Epictetus, a heathen (In Encher.), I would do as a nightingale; but since I am a man, what shall I do? I will praise my Maker, and never cease to do it: I exhort also all men to do the like.
