AB - Psalms - 146

146:1  Alleluia, A Psalm of Aggaeus and Zacharias. Praise the Lord, O my soul!.

146:2  While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

146:3  Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.

146:4  His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all his thoughts shall perish.

146:5  Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

146:6  who made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things in them; who keeps truth forever;

146:7  who executes judgment for the wronged: who gives food to the hungry. The Lord looses the fettered ones.

146:8  The Lord gives wisdom to the blind; the Lord sets up the broken down; the Lord loves the righteous:; the Lord preserves the strangers;

146:9  He will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.

146:10  The Lord shall reign forever, even your God, O Zion, to all generations.
