Psalmi 146

1 Hvalite Gospoda. Hvali Gospoda, oh moja duša.

Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul.

2 Medtem ko živim, bom hvalil Gospoda; medtem ko imam kakršen koli obstoj, bom prepeval hvalnice svojemu Bogu.

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

3 Svojega trdnega upanja ne polagaj v prince niti v človeškega sina, v katerem ni pomoči.

Do not put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.

4 Njegov dih gre dalje, vrača se k svoji zemlji; na ta isti dan propadejo njegove misli.

His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.

5 Srečen je tisti, ki ima za svojo pomoč Jakobovega Boga, katerega upanje je v Gospodu, njegovemu Bogu,

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

6 ki je naredil nebo in zemljo, morje in vse, kar je tam notri, ki na veke ohranja resnico,

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

7 ki izvršuje sodbo za zatiranega, ki daje hrano lačnemu. Gospod osvobaja jetnike,

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

8 Gospod slepim odpira oči, Gospod dviguje tiste, ki so sklonjeni, Gospod ljubi pravične,

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

9 Gospod varuje tujce in podpira osirotelega in vdovo, toda pot zlobnih postavlja na glavo.

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

10 Gospod bo kraljeval na veke, celó tvoj Bog, oh Sion, vsem rodovom. Hvalite Gospoda.

The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
