Psalms 146

1Praise ye Jah! Praise, O my soul, Jehovah.

1Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

2I praise Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.

2 As long as I live will I praise Jehovah; I will sing psalms unto myGod while I have my being.

3Trust not in princes--in a son of man, For he hath no deliverance.

3 Put not confidence in nobles, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

4His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In that day have his thoughts perished.

4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his purposes perish.

5O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his help, His hope <FI>is<Fi> on Jehovah his God,

5 Blessed is he who hath theGod of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah hisGod,

6Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that <FI>is<Fi> in them, Who is keeping truth to the age,

6 Who made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is therein; who keepeth truth for ever;

7Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.

7 Who executeth judgment for the oppressed, who giveth bread to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

8Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah is loving the righteous,

8 Jehovah openeth [the eyes of] the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous;

9Jehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down.

9 Jehovah preserveth the strangers; he lifteth up the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked doth he subvert.

10Jehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise ye Jah!

10 Jehovah will reign for ever, [even] thyGod, O Zion, from generation to generation. Hallelujah!
