Psalms 146

1 Praise JAH. Praise Jehovah, my soul.

הַֽלְלוּ־יָהּ הַֽלְלִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יְהֹוָֽה׃

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

אֲהַלְלָה יְהֹוָה בְּחַיָּי אֲזַמְּרָה לֵאלֹהַי בְּעוֹדִֽי׃

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

אַל־תִּבְטְחוּ בִנְדִיבִים בְּבֶן־אָדָם ׀ שֶׁאֵין לוֹ תְשׁוּעָֽה׃

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

תֵּצֵא רוּחוֹ יָשֻׁב לְאַדְמָתוֹ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָבְדוּ עֶשְׁתֹּֽנֹתָֽיו׃

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

אַשְׁרֵי שֶׁאֵל יַעֲקֹב בְּעֶזְרוֹ שִׂבְרוֹ עַל־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהָֽיו׃

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

עֹשֶׂה ׀ שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ אֶת־הַיָּם וְאֶת־כׇּל־אֲשֶׁר־בָּם הַשֹּׁמֵר אֱמֶת לְעוֹלָֽם׃

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

עֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט ׀ לָעֲשׁוּקִים נֹתֵן לֶחֶם לָרְעֵבִים יְהֹוָה מַתִּיר אֲסוּרִֽים׃

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

יְהֹוָה ׀ פֹּקֵחַ עִוְרִים יְהֹוָה זֹקֵף כְּפוּפִים יְהֹוָה אֹהֵב צַדִּיקִֽים׃

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

יְהֹוָה ׀ שֹׁמֵר אֶת־גֵּרִים יָתוֹם וְאַלְמָנָה יְעוֹדֵד וְדֶרֶךְ רְשָׁעִים יְעַוֵּֽת׃

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

יִמְלֹךְ יְהֹוָה ׀ לְעוֹלָם אֱלֹהַיִךְ צִיּוֹן לְדֹר וָדֹר הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
