Psalmorum 146

1 Alleluia, Aggaei, et Zachariae.

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 eius, 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, cuius Deus Iacob adiutor eius, spes eius 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 caelum et terram, mare, et omnia, quae in eis sunt.

the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.

7 Qui custodit veritatem in saeculum, facit iudicium iniuriam 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 caecos. Dominus erigit elisos, Dominus diligit iustos.

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 saecula Deus tuus Sion, in generatione et generationem.

The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Hallelujah!
