< Psalmorum 146 >
1 Alleluia, Aggaei, et Zachariae.
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 unto 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 eius, 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, cuius Deus Iacob adiutor eius, spes eius 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 caelum et terram, mare, et omnia, quae in eis sunt.
Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein [is: ] which keepeth truth for ever:
7 Qui custodit veritatem in saeculum, facit iudicium iniuriam patientibus: dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos:
Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:
8 Dominus illuminat caecos. Dominus erigit elisos, Dominus diligit iustos.
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 saecula Deus tuus Sion, in generatione et generationem.
The LORD shall reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
