146:1 | | Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. |
146:2 | | While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. |
146:3 | | Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. |
146:4 | | His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. |
146:5 | | Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: |
146:6 | | Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: |
146:7 | | Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners: |
146:8 | | The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous: |
146:9 | | The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. |
146:10 | | The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD. |
