Psalm 146

1. 1

   Hallelujah! Praise the LORD, O my soul! *
   I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

2. 2

   Put not your trust in rulers, nor in any child of earth, *
   for there is no help in them.

3. 3

   When they breathe their last, they return to earth, *
   and in that day their thoughts perish.

4. 4

   Happy are they who have the God of Jacob for their help! *
   whose hope is in the LORD their God;

5. 5

   Who made heaven and earth, the seas, and all that is in them; *
   who keeps his promise for ever;

6. 6

   Who gives justice to those who are oppressed, *
   and food to those who hunger.

7. 7

   The LORD sets the prisoners free; the LORD opens the eyes of the blind; *
   the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down;

8. 8

   The LORD loves the righteous; the LORD cares for the stranger; *
   he sustains the orphan and widow, but frustrates the way of the wicked.

9. 9

   The LORD shall reign for ever, *
   your God, O Zion, throughout all generations. Hallelujah!
