Psalm 146:1-10 - Praise To Yahweh For His Help

¹ Hallelujah!
My soul, praise the Lord.
² I will praise the Lord all my life;
I will sing to my God as long as I live.

³ Do not trust in nobles,
in man, who cannot save.
⁴ When his breath leaves him,
he returns to the ground;
on that day his plans die.

⁵ Happy is the one whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
⁶ the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea and everything in them.
He remains faithful forever,
⁷ executing justice for the exploited
and giving food to the hungry.
The Lord frees prisoners.
⁸ The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord raises up those who are oppressed.
The Lord loves the righteous.
⁹ The Lord protects foreigners
and helps the fatherless and the widow,
but He frustrates the ways of the wicked.

¹⁰ The Lord reigns forever;
Zion, your God reigns for all generations.
Hallelujah!
