# Chapter 146
|
|
1 Praise the Lord!
|
|
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
|
|
2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live;
|
|
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
|
|
3 Put not your trust in princes,
|
|
in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
|
|
4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth;
|
|
on that very day his plans perish.
|
|
5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
|
|
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
|
|
6 who made heaven and earth,
|
|
the sea, and all that is in them,
|
|
who keeps faith forever;
|
|
7 who executes justice for the oppressed,
|
|
who gives food to the hungry.
|
|
The Lord sets the prisoners free;
|
|
8 the Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
|
|
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
|
|
the Lord loves the righteous.
|
|
9 The Lord watches over the sojourners;
|
|
he upholds the widow and the fatherless,
|
|
but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
|
|
10 The Lord will reign forever,
|
|
your God, O Zion, to all generations.
|
|
Praise the Lord! |
