Psalms 146

1 Praise the Lord! With my whole being I praise the Lord!

Alleluia, Aggæi, et Zachariæ.

2 I will praise the Lord while I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have breath.

Lauda anima mea Dominum, laudabo Dominum in vita mea: psallam Deo meo quamdiu fuero. Nolite confidere in principibus:

3 Don't put your confidence in human leaders—they cannot save you.

in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.

4 Once they breathe no more, they go back to dust. On that very day everything they planned dies with them.

Exibit spiritus eius, et revertetur in terram suam: in illa die peribunt omnes cogitationes eorum.

5 Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them—their hope is in the Lord their God—

Beatus, cuius Deus Iacob adiutor eius, spes eius in Domino Deo ipsius:

6 the one who made heaven and earth, and the sea along with everything it contains. He is trustworthy forever.

qui fecit cælum et terram, mare, et omnia, quæ in eis sunt.

7 He makes sure the oppressed receive justice. He gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the prisoners free.

Qui custodit veritatem in sæculum, facit iudicium iniuriam patientibus: dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos:

8 The Lord makes the blind see. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down. The Lord loves those who do what is right.

Dominus illuminat cæcos. Dominus erigit elisos, Dominus diligit iustos.

9 The Lord takes care of strangers among us. He looks after widows and orphans. But he makes life difficult for the wicked.

Dominus custodit advenas, pupillum et viduam suscipiet: et vias peccatorum disperdet.

10 The Lord will reign forever. Zion, he will be your God for all generations. Praise the Lord!

Regnabit Dominus in sæcula Deus tuus Sion, in generationem et generationem.
