Psalms 146

1 Praise ye YHWH. Praise YHWH, O my soul.

Praise ye Jah! Praise, O my soul, Jehovah.

2 While I live will I praise YHWH: I will sing praises unto my Elohim while I have any being.

I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

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

Trust not in princes — in a son of man, For he hath no deliverance.

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

His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In that day have his thoughts perished.

5 Joyful is he that hath the El of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in YHWH his Elohim:

O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on Jehovah his God,

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

Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth to the age,

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

Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.

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

Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah is loving the righteous,

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

Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.

10 YHWH shall reign for ever, even thy Elohim, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye YHWH.

Jehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise ye Jah!
