Psalmorum 146

1 Alleluja, Aggæi et Zachariæ.

Praise ye the LORD. 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,

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.

3 in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.

Put not your trust in princes, [nor] in the son of man, in whom [there is] no help.

4 Exibit spiritus ejus, et revertetur in terram suam; in illa die peribunt omnes cogitationes eorum.

His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

5 Beatus cujus Deus Jacob adjutor ejus, spes ejus in Domino Deo ipsius:

Happy [is he] that [hath] the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope [is] in the LORD his God:

6 qui fecit cælum et terram, mare, et omnia quæ in eis sunt.

Who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that [is] in them: who keepeth truth for ever:

7 Qui custodit veritatem in sæculum; facit judicium injuriam patientibus; dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos;

Who executeth judgment for the oppressed: who giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

8 Dominus illuminat cæcos. Dominus erigit elisos; Dominus diligit justos.

The LORD openeth [the eyes of] the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

9 Dominus custodit advenas, pupillum et viduam suscipiet, et vias peccatorum disperdet.

The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

10 Regnabit Dominus in sæcula; Deus tuus, Sion, in generationem et generationem.

The LORD will reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
