Psalms 146

Praise to Jehovah the abundant Helper.

¹Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul!

²I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have being.

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

⁴When his breath departs he returns to his earth; on that very day his plans perish.

⁵Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,

⁶who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps faith for ever;

⁷who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free;

⁸the LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD lifts up those who are bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous.

⁹The LORD watches over the sojourners, he upholds the widow and the fatherless; but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.

¹⁰The LORD will reign for ever, thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
