Psalms 146
1Alleluia,a Psalm of Aggaeus and Zacharias. My soul, praise the Lord.2While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises to my God as long as Iexist.
3Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.
4His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all histhoughts shall perish.
5Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God:
6who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all things in them: who keeps truth forever:
7who executes judgment for the wronged: who gives food to the hungry. The Lord loosesthe fettered ones:
8the Lord gives wisdom to the blind: The Lord sets up the broken down: the Lordloves the righteous: the Lord preserves the strangers;
9he will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.
10The Lord shall reign for ever,even your God, O Sion, to all generations.
