Psalms 146

   |   

1 (145-1) <Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.> (145-2) Praise the Lord, O my soul,2 (145-2) in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:3 (145-3) In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.4 (145-4) His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

5 (145-5) Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:6 (145-6) Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.7 (145-7) Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:8 (145-8) The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.9 (145-9) The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.10 The Lord shall reign forever, even Your God, O Zion, from generation to generation. Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) Ps. 10:16;
