Psalms 146

1 Praise JAH. Praise Jehovah, my soul.

Praise ye the LORD. 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.

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to my God while I have any 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 earth; 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 that hath the God of Jacob for his help, 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 is in them: who keepeth truth for ever:

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

Who executeth judgment for the oppressed: who giveth food 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 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 relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

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

The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
