詩篇 146

1 我的靈魂，您要讚美上主，

Hallelujah. Praise, O my soul, the Lord.

2 在我一生，我要讚美上主，一息尚存，我要歌頌天主。

I will praise the Lord throughout my life: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3 您們不要全心依賴王侯大臣，也不要依賴不能施救的世人；

Put not your trust in princes, in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

4 他的氣息一斷，就歸於灰土，他的一切計劃立刻化為烏有。

When his spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his [native] earth: on that very day perish his thoughts.

5 凡是以雅各伯的天主為自己扶助的人，上主天主為自己希望的，是有福的人。

[But] happy is he who hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is on the Lord his God;

6 上主創造了上天與下土，海洋和其中的所有一切。他持守信實，一直到永久。

Who hath made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is therein; who keepeth truth for ever;

7 上主為被欺的人作辯護，上主給饑餓的人賜食物，上主使被囚的人得自由。

Who executeth justice for the oppressed: who giveth bread to the hungry: the Lord looseneth the prisoners;

8 上主開啟瞎子的眼睛，上主使傴僂的人直身，上主愛慕那正義的人。

The Lord causeth the blind to see; the Lord raiseth up those who are bowed down; the Lord loveth the righteous:

9 上主對旅客加以保護，上主支持孤兒和寡婦，上主迷惑惡人的道路。

The Lord guardeth the strangers; the fatherless and widow he helpeth up; but the way of the wicked he maketh crooked.

10 願上主永永遠遠為君王！熙雍，您的天主萬壽無疆！

The Lord will reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.
