Psalms 146

¹Praise ye the LORD .

Praise the LORD , O my soul.

²While I live will I praise the LORD :

I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

³Put not your trust in princes,

Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

⁴His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;

In that very day his thoughts perish.

⁵Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help,

Whose hope is in the LORD his God:

⁶Which made heaven and earth, the sea,

And all that in them is;

Which keepeth truth for ever:

⁷Which executeth judgement for the oppressed;

Which giveth food to the hungry:

The LORD looseth the prisoners;

⁸The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind;

The LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down;

The LORD loveth the righteous;

⁹The LORD preserveth the strangers;

He upholdeth the fatherless and widow;

But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

¹⁰The LORD shall reign for ever,

Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations.

Praise ye the LORD .
