Psalms 146

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

Hvalite Gospoda. Hvali Gospoda, oh moja duša.

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

Medtem ko živim, bom hvalil Gospoda; medtem ko imam kakršen koli obstoj, bom prepeval hvalnice svojemu Bogu.

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

Svojega trdnega upanja ne polagaj v prince niti v človeškega sina, v katerem ni pomoči.

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

Njegov dih gre dalje, vrača se k svoji zemlji; na ta isti dan propadejo njegove misli.

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

Srečen je tisti, ki ima za svojo pomoč Jakobovega Boga, katerega upanje je v Gospodu, njegovemu Bogu,

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

ki je naredil nebo in zemljo, morje in vse, kar je tam notri, ki na veke ohranja resnico,

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

ki izvršuje sodbo za zatiranega, ki daje hrano lačnemu. Gospod osvobaja jetnike,

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

Gospod slepim odpira oči, Gospod dviguje tiste, ki so sklonjeni, Gospod ljubi pravične,

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

Gospod varuje tujce in podpira osirotelega in vdovo, toda pot zlobnih postavlja na glavo.

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

Gospod bo kraljeval na veke, celó tvoj Bog, oh Sion, vsem rodovom. Hvalite Gospoda.
