Psalms 146
Psalm 146
1 My soul, praise the Lord.2I will praise the Lord, while I live;
I will sing to my God, while I am.
3Put not your trust in princes
mortals, in whom is no help.
4When their breath goes out,
they go back to the dust:
on that very day
their purposes perish.
5Happy those whose help
is the God of Jacob:
whose hope is set
on the Lord their God,
6the Creator of heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them.
He remains eternally loyal.
7For the wronged he executes justice;
he gives bread to the hungry;
the Lord releases the prisoners.
8The Lord gives sight to the blind:
the Lord raises those who are bowed.
The Lord loves the righteous.
9The Lord preserves the stranger,
upholds the widow and orphan,
but the wicked he leads to disaster.
10The Lord shall reign forever,
your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Hallelujah.
