Psalms 146

1 Praise YAH! Praise, O my soul, YHWH.

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

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

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

3 Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, For he has no deliverance.

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

4 His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, In that day his thoughts have perished.

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

5 O the blessedness of him Who has the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on his God YHWH,

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

6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth for all time,

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

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

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

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

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

9 YHWH is preserving the strangers, He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.

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

10 YHWH reigns for all time, Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise YAH!

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