Psalmorum 146

1 Alleluia, Aggaei, et Zachariae.

Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul.

2 Lauda anima mea Dominum, laudabo Dominum in vita mea: psallam Deo meo quamdiu fuero. Nolite confidere in principibus:

While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

3 in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.

Don’t put your trust in princes, in a 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 spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.

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

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God,

6 qui fecit caelum et terram, mare, et omnia, quae in eis sunt.

who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;

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

who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners.

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

Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous.

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

Yahweh preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.

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

Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah!
