Psalms 146

1 Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul.

Aleluja! Hvali, duša moja, Gospoda.

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

Hvalil bodem Gospoda v življenji svojem; prepeval bodem Bogu svojemu, dokler bodem.

3 Don’t put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.

Ne imejte zaupanja v prvake, v sina človeškega, pri katerem ni blaginje.

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

Duh njegov izide, povrne se v zemljo svojo; isti dan minejo misli njegove.

5 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God,

Blagor, komur je na pomoč Bog mogočni Jakobov; katerega nada je v Gospodu, njegovem Bogu,

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

Kateri je naredil nebesa in zemljo, morje in kar je v njiju, kateri hrani zvestobo vekomaj.

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

Kateri dela pravico zatiranim, hrane daje lačnim, Gospod oprašča jetnike.

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

Gospod odpira očí slepim, Gospod vzdiguje potrte, Gospod ljubi pravične.

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

Gospod brani tujce, siroto in vdovo podpira; pot pa hudobnih razdira.

10 Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah!

Vladal bode Gospod vekomaj; Bog tvoj, o Sijon, od roda do roda. Aleluja!
