Psalms 146

1 Praise JAH. Praise YHWH, my soul.

Praise all of you the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2 While I live, I will praise YHWH. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3 Do not put your trust in princes, each a son of man in whom there is no help.

Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4 His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.

His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

5 Blessed is the one who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in YHWH his God,

Happy is he that has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

6 who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;

Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keeps truth for ever:

7 who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. YHWH frees the prisoners.

Which executes judgment for the oppressed: which gives food to the hungry. The LORD looses the prisoners:

8 YHWH opens the eyes of the blind. YHWH raises up those who are bowed down. YHWH loves the righteous.

The LORD opens the eyes of the blind: the LORD raises them that are bowed down: the LORD loves the righteous:

9 YHWH preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

The LORD perserves the strangers; he relieves the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

10 YHWH will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise JAH.

The LORD shall reign for ever, even your God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise all of you the LORD.
