Psalmorum 146

1 alleluia Aggei et Zacchariae

Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, my soul.

2 lauda anima mea Dominum laudabo Dominum in vita mea psallam Deo meo quamdiu fuero nolite confidere in principibus

While I live, I will praise the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

3 in filiis hominum quibus non est salus

Don’t put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.

4 exibit spiritus eius et revertetur in terram suam in illa die peribunt omnes cogitationes eorum

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

5 beatus cuius Deus Iacob adiutor eius spes eius in Domino Deo ipsius

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

6 qui fecit caelum et terram mare et omnia quae in eis

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

7 qui custodit veritatem in saeculum facit iudicium iniuriam patientibus dat escam esurientibus Dominus solvit conpeditos

who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The LORD frees the prisoners.

8 Dominus inluminat caecos Dominus erigit adlisos Dominus diligit iustos

The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD raises up those who are bowed down. The LORD loves the righteous.

9 Dominus custodit advenas pupillum et viduam suscipiet et viam peccatorum disperdet

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

10 regnabit Dominus in saecula Deus tuus Sion in generationem et generationem

The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
