Psalms 146

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

Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

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

As long as I live will I praise Jehovah; I will sing psalms unto my God while I have my being.

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

Put not confidence in nobles, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

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

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

5 Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

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

Who made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is therein; who keepeth truth for ever;

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

Who executeth judgment for the oppressed, who giveth bread to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

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

Jehovah openeth [the eyes of] the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous;

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

Jehovah preserveth the strangers; he lifteth up the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked doth he subvert.

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

Jehovah will reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, from generation to generation. Hallelujah!
