Psalms 146

1 Praise ye Yah, Praise, O my soul, Yahweh.

Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.

2 I will praise Yahweh while I live! I will make melody to my God while I continue!

Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:

3 Do not ye trust in nobles, in a son of man who hath no deliverance:

In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.

4 His spirit, goeth forth, he returneth to his ground, In that very day, his thoughts perish.

His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

5 How happy is he that hath the GOD of Jacob as his help, whose hope, is on Yahweh his God: —

Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6 Who made The heavens and the earth, The sea and all that is therein, Who keepeth faithfulness to times age-abiding:

Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.

7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed, who giveth food to the famishing, Yahweh, who liberateth prisoners;

Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:

8 Yahweh, who opened [the eyes of] the blind, Yahweh, who raiseth the prostrate, Yahweh, who loveth the righteous;

The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.

9 Yahweh, who preserveth sojourners, The fatherless and widows, he relieveth, —but, the way of the lawless, he overturneth.

The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.

10 Yahweh, will reign, to times age-abiding, Thy God, O Zion, to generation after generation. Praise ye Yah!

The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
