# Chapter 146
|
|
1 Hallelujah!
|
|
My soul, praise the Lord.
|
|
2 I will praise the Lord all my life;
|
|
I will sing to my God as long as I live.
|
|
3 Do not trust in nobles,
|
|
in a son of man, who cannot save.
|
|
4 When his breath leaves him,
|
|
he returns to the ground;
|
|
on that day his plans die.
|
|
5 Happy is the one whose help is the God of Jacob,
|
|
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
|
|
6 the Maker of heaven and earth,
|
|
the sea and everything in them.
|
|
He remains faithful forever,
|
|
7 executing justice for the exploited
|
|
and giving food to the hungry.
|
|
The Lord frees prisoners.
|
|
8 The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
|
|
The Lord raises up those who are oppressed.
|
|
The Lord loves the righteous.
|
|
9 The Lord protects resident aliens
|
|
and helps the fatherless and the widow,
|
|
but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.
|
|
10 The Lord reigns forever;
|
|
Zion, your God reigns for all generations.
|
|
Hallelujah! |
