| Chapter 146 |
1 |
Praise ye Jah! Praise, O my soul, Yehovah. |
2 |
I praise Yehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist. |
3 |
Trust not in princes -- in a son of man, For he hath no deliverance. |
4 |
His spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his earth, In that day have his thoughts perished. |
5 |
O the happiness of him Who hath the God of Jacob for his help, His hope is on Yehovah his God, |
6 |
Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that is in them, Who is keeping truth to the age, |
7 |
Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry. |
8 |
Yehovah is loosing the prisoners, Yehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Yehovah is raising the bowed down, Yehovah is loving the righteous, |
9 |
Yehovah is preserving the strangers, The fatherless and widow He causeth to stand, And the way of the wicked He turneth upside down. |
10 |
Yehovah doth reign to the age, Thy God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise ye Jah! |
