< Psalms 146 >
1 Praise the LORD. Praise the LORD, my soul.
Praise ye Yah, Praise, O my soul, Yahweh.
2 While I live, I will praise the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
I will praise Yahweh while I live! I will make melody to my God while I continue!
3 Do not put your trust in princes, each a son of man in whom there is no help.
Do not ye trust in nobles, in a son of man who hath no deliverance:
4 His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.
His spirit, goeth forth, he returneth to his ground, 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 the LORD his God,
How happy is he that hath the GOD of Jacob as his help, whose hope, is on Yahweh his God: —
6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;
Who made The heavens and the earth, The sea and all that is therein, Who keepeth faithfulness to times age-abiding:
7 who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The LORD frees the prisoners.
Who executeth justice for the oppressed, who giveth food to the famishing, Yahweh, who liberateth prisoners;
8 The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD raises up those who are bowed down. The LORD loves the righteous.
Yahweh, who opened [the eyes of] the blind, Yahweh, who raiseth the prostrate, Yahweh, who loveth the righteous;
9 The LORD preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.
Yahweh, who preserveth sojourners, The fatherless and widows, he relieveth, —but, the way of the lawless, he overturneth.
10 The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD.
Yahweh, will reign, to times age-abiding, Thy God, O Zion, to generation after generation. Praise ye Yah!
