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 in them 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 up 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 upholdeth 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, thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
