Psalms 146

1 Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.

我的靈魂，您要讚美上主，

2 While I have breath I will give praise to the Lord: I will make melody to my God while I have my being.

在我一生，我要讚美上主，一息尚存，我要歌頌天主。

3 Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

您們不要全心依賴王侯大臣，也不要依賴不能施救的世人；

4 Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.

他的氣息一斷，就歸於灰土，他的一切計劃立刻化為烏有。

5 Happy is the man who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

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。

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things in them; who keeps faith for ever:

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。

7 Who gives their rights to those who are crushed down; and gives food to those who are in need of it: the Lord makes the prisoners free;

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。

8 The Lord makes open the eyes of the blind; the Lord is the lifter up of those who are bent down; the Lord is a lover of the upright;

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。

9 The Lord takes care of those who are in a strange land; he gives help to the widow and to the child who has no father; but he sends destruction on the way of sinners.

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。

10 The Lord will be King for ever; your God, O Zion, will be King through all generations. Praise be to the Lord.

願上主永永遠遠為君王！熙雍，您的天主萬壽無疆！
