Psalms 146

1 Praise you the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Hvalite Gospoda. Hvali Gospoda, oh moja duša.

2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.

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 son of man, in whom there is no help.

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

4 His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

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

5 Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, 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 heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keeps truth for ever:

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

7 Which executes judgment for the oppressed: which gives food to the hungry. The LORD looses the prisoners:

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

8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind: the LORD raises them that are bowed down: the LORD loves the righteous:

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

9 The LORD preserves the strangers; he relieves the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

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

10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise you the LORD.

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