Psalms 145:3

There can be no worthier object of praise than Jehovah. The verse re-echoes Psalms 48:1 a; Psalms 96:4 a; Job 11:7 ff.; Isaiah 40:28.

greatly to be praised Better, exceeding worthy to be praised. In most editions of the Prayer Book this verse reads Great is the Lord, and marvellous, worthy to be praised. The comma after marvellousdoes not appear in the MS annexed as the authoritative copy to the Act of Uniformity of 1662, but was wrongly introduced into the earliest printed copies by the printers, who failed to see that marvellouswas an adverb, as in Psalms 31:23.
