< Psalms 146 >
1 Praise ye Yah, Praise, O my soul, Yahweh.
我的靈魂,您要讚美上主,
2 I will praise Yahweh while I live! I will make melody to my God while I continue!
在我一生,我要讚美上主,一息尚存,我要歌頌天主。
3 Do not ye trust in nobles, in a son of man who hath no deliverance:
您們不要全心依賴王侯大臣,也不要依賴不能施救的世人;
4 His spirit, goeth forth, he returneth to his ground, In that very day, his thoughts perish.
他的氣息一斷,就歸於灰土,他的一切計劃立刻化為烏有。
5 How happy is he that hath the GOD of Jacob as his help, whose hope, is on Yahweh his God: —
凡是以雅各伯的天主為自己扶助的人,上主天主為自己希望的,是有福的人。
6 Who made The heavens and the earth, The sea and all that is therein, Who keepeth faithfulness to times age-abiding:
上主創造了上天與下土,海洋和其中的所有一切。他持守信實,一直到永久。
7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed, who giveth food to the famishing, Yahweh, who liberateth prisoners;
上主為被欺的人作辯護,上主給饑餓的人賜食物,上主使被囚的人得自由。
8 Yahweh, who opened [the eyes of] the blind, Yahweh, who raiseth the prostrate, Yahweh, who loveth the righteous;
上主開啟瞎子的眼睛,上主使傴僂的人直身,上主愛慕那正義的人。
9 Yahweh, who preserveth sojourners, The fatherless and widows, he relieveth, —but, the way of the lawless, he overturneth.
上主對旅客加以保護,上主支持孤兒和寡婦,上主迷惑惡人的道路。
10 Yahweh, will reign, to times age-abiding, Thy God, O Zion, to generation after generation. Praise ye Yah!
願上主永永遠遠為君王!熙雍,您的天主萬壽無疆!
