< Psalmorum 146 >
1 Alleluja, Aggæi et Zachariæ.
Hallelujah! Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2 Lauda, anima mea, Dominum. Laudabo Dominum in vita mea; psallam Deo meo quamdiu fuero. Nolite confidere in principibus,
I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3 in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.
Put not your trust in princes, in mortal man, who cannot save.
4 Exibit spiritus ejus, et revertetur in terram suam; in illa die peribunt omnes cogitationes eorum.
When his spirit departs, he returns to the ground; on that very day his plans perish.
5 Beatus cujus Deus Jacob adjutor ejus, spes ejus in Domino Deo ipsius:
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,
6 qui fecit cælum et terram, mare, et omnia quæ in eis sunt.
the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.
7 Qui custodit veritatem in sæculum; facit judicium injuriam patientibus; dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos;
He executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free,
8 Dominus illuminat cæcos. Dominus erigit elisos; Dominus diligit justos.
the LORD opens the eyes of the blind, the LORD lifts those who are weighed down, the LORD loves the righteous.
9 Dominus custodit advenas, pupillum et viduam suscipiet, et vias peccatorum disperdet.
The LORD protects foreigners; He sustains the fatherless and the widow, but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.
10 Regnabit Dominus in sæcula; Deus tuus, Sion, in generationem et generationem.
The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Hallelujah!
