| Chapter 146 |
1 | Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
|
2 | While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.
|
3 | Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
|
4 | His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
|
5 | Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
|
6 | Who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is in them: who keepeth truth for ever:
|
7 | Who executeth judgment for the oppressed: who giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:
|
8 | The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:
|
9 | The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
|
10 | The LORD will reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
