Psalms 146

1 Praise JAH. Praise Jehovah, my soul.

Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2 While I live, I will praise Jehovah. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises unto my God while I have my being.

3 Do not put your trust in princes, each a son of man in whom there is no help.

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

4 His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.

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

5 Blessed is the one who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,

6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;

Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; who keepeth truth for ever;

7 who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Jehovah frees the prisoners.

Who executeth justice for the oppressed; who giveth bread to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners;

8 Jehovah opens the eyes of the blind. Jehovah raises up those who are bowed down. Jehovah loves the righteous.

The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;

9 Jehovah preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

The LORD preserveth the strangers; He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.

10 Jehovah will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise JAH.

The LORD will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.
