< Psalms 146 >

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
Praise ye the Lord. Praise thou the Lord, O my soule.
2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
I will prayse the Lord during my life: as long as I haue any being, I wil sing vnto my God.
3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
Put not your trust in princes, nor in the sonne of man, for there is none helpe in him.
4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
His breath departeth, and he returneth to his earth: then his thoughtes perish.
5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
Blessed is he, that hath the God of Iaakob for his helpe, whose hope is in the Lord his God.
6 Which made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; which keepeth truth for ever:
Which made heauen and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth his fidelitie for euer:
7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed; which giveth food to the hungry: the LORD looseth the prisoners;
Which executeth iustice for the oppressed: which giueth bread to the hungry: the Lord loseth the prisoners.
8 The LORD openeth [the eyes of] the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;
The Lord giueth sight to the blinde: the Lord rayseth vp the crooked: the Lord loueth the righteous.
9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he upholdeth the fatherless and widow; but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
The Lord keepeth the strangers: he relieueth the fatherlesse and widowe: but he ouerthroweth the way of the wicked.
10 The LORD shall reign for ever, thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
The Lord shall reigne for euer: O Zion, thy God endureth from generation to generation. Prayse ye the Lord.
