Psalmorum 146

1 Alleluia, Aggaei, et Zachariae.

Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. My soul, praise the Lord.

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 as long as I exist.

3 in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.

Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.

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

His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all his thoughts shall perish.

5 Beatus, cuius Deus Iacob adiutor eius, spes eius in Domino Deo ipsius:

Blessed is he whose helper 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.

who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all things in them: who keeps truth for ever:

7 Qui custodit veritatem in saeculum, facit iudicium iniuriam patientibus: dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos:

who executes judgment for the wronged: who gives food to the hungry. The Lord looses the fettered ones:

8 Dominus illuminat caecos. Dominus erigit elisos, Dominus diligit iustos.

the Lord gives wisdom to the blind: The Lord sets up the broken down: the Lord loves the righteous: the Lord preserves the strangers;

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

he will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.

10 Regnabit Dominus in saecula Deus tuus Sion, in generatione et generationem.

The Lord shall reign for ever, [even] your God, O Sion, to all generations.
