Psalm 146

146:1

¶ Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

146:2

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

146:3

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

146:4

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

146:5

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

146:6

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

146:7

Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

146:8

The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

146:9

The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

146:10

The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
