Psalm 146

Psalm 146
1
Praise the LORD. [1] Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2
I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
3
Do not put your trust in princes, in mortal men, who cannot save.
4
When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing.
5
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,
6
the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them-- the LORD, who remains faithful forever.
7
He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets prisoners free,
8
the LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous.
9
The LORD watches over the alien and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.
10
The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the LORD.
  1. [1] Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 10
