Psalms 146

1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise thou the Lord, O my soule.

Praise Yah. Praise Yhwh, O my soul.

2 I will prayse the Lord during my life: as long as I haue any being, I wil sing vnto my God.

While I live will I praise Yhwh: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the sonne of man, for there is none helpe in him.

Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4 His breath departeth, and he returneth to his earth: then his thoughtes perish.

His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

5 Blessed is he, that hath the God of Iaakob for his helpe, whose hope is in the Lord his God.

Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yhwh his God:

6 Which made heauen and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth his fidelitie for euer:

Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

7 Which executeth iustice for the oppressed: which giueth bread to the hungry: the Lord loseth the prisoners.

Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. Yhwh looseth the prisoners:

8 The Lord giueth sight to the blinde: the Lord rayseth vp the crooked: the Lord loueth the righteous.

Yhwh openeth the eyes of the blind: Yhwh raiseth them that are bowed down: Yhwh loveth the righteous:

9 The Lord keepeth the strangers: he relieueth the fatherlesse and widowe: but he ouerthroweth the way of the wicked.

Yhwh preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

10 The Lord shall reigne for euer: O Zion, thy God endureth from generation to generation. Prayse ye the Lord.

Yhwh shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelu jah.
