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